Watching the video, it is actually doing a pretty amazing job of deciding the difference between stationary traffic and street furniture. I’m impressed… and slightly disturbed. How long before the state will be able to un-person “enemies” in real time?

That’s a first try? Amazing! Google street view without the cars would be a good first application once it works.

Another pesky rogue program in the Matrix.
Eternal sunshine!
