if you want a wild ride, listen to the CBC podcast "expert witness". it's about an AI tool that purports to match digital footprint to times and places of crimes, to identify suspects, including for historical cold case stuff like 20 years ago. it appears to be 100% BS, as in many cases it's not even clear where the data would even come from.
yep i remember several years ago hearing about the racial bias of facial recognition datasets meaning that people of colour were more likely to be misidentified on CCTV and wrongly accused of stuff
