Young people demand Apple compensation of $ 1 billion for being caught because the face recognition software got it wrong
Ousmane Bah, an 18-year-old young man in New York (USA) and a high school student, has filed a lawsuit against Apple for a $ 1 billion compensation because the software recognizes the face of the firm that mistook him for being arrested by police. .
The incident happened in November last year, Bah was arrested at his home in New York with an arrest warrant with a photo of his face and accused him of stealing the product at the Apple Store. Bah insists that the person in the picture is not him.
Bah was accused of stealing $ 1,200 Apple Pencil at an Apple Store in Boston last June and at other Apple Store stores in New Jersey, Delaware and New York. But Bah insists that the time of the burglary in Boston is going to a prom event for senior students in Manhattan.
Bah said he had lost his driver's license and maybe the bad guy picked it up and used it to register customers at the Apple Store. Bah affirmed that Apple's face recognition system, used to track down a suspected thief, mistakenly received the face of the thief with his face. Checking the tape from the camera also shows that Bah has no resemblance to the face of the thief.
Currently, two companies named in Bah's lawsuit, Apple and Security Industry Specialists Inc, declined to comment.
