    Flock did not put the woman in jail. The police and DA put her in Jail. This is not a failure of the technology (do they have confidence levels?). This is a failure of how police are outsourcing their reasoning and decision making to an AI camera service that seems to fail at the tail.

      Would depend entirely how Flock is marketed and represented to the people who buy them and whatever training Flock provides.
