I think the false-negatives of such a system, which weren't entirely addressed ("will get better with machine learning"), would be worth more to look into than things not guns being seen as guns.
- mark-r 9y agoFalse negative and false positive rates are correlated, you can generally trade off one for the other - although I don't know how easy that is with machine learning. The false negative rate doesn't have to be perfect to be a deterrent - would you try to sneak a gun into a casino if you knew you had a 50/50 chance of being caught?
