Robert Williams was arrested in front of his kids for a crime he didn’t commit. The evidence? Facial recognition AI that can’t tell Black faces apart. He sued, exposed the algorithm’s 35% error rate on Black faces, and is winning the war against AI policing.
In this exposé, we reveal how AI is the new Jim Crow:
• How Robert Williams proved facial recognition framed him
• The 35% error rate on Black faces vs 1% on white faces
• Why Detroit arrested 3 innocent Black men using the same AI
• The $10 million lawsuit that’s shutting down AI policing
• How Amazon, Microsoft, and IBM pulled their tech after getting exposed
• The police departments secretly using it anyway
Williams was at work when the “crime” happened. Had receipts. Had witnesses. Didn’t matter. The AI said he was guilty.
Follow now because AI is putting innocent Black people in jail every day.
He spent 30 hours in jail. Lost his job. Traumatized his daughters. For stealing watches he never touched from a store he’d never visited.
Here’s the terrifying part: Police ran his driver’s license photo through facial recognition without his knowledge. No warrant. No probable cause. Just AI fishing.
MIT proved it: Facial recognition is 34 times more likely to misidentify Black faces. That’s not a bug. It’s programmed racism.
Detroit PD has wrongly arrested THREE Black men using facial recognition. All sued. All winning.
If AI can put you in jail without evidence, you’re not free — you’re just not arrested yet.
