I keep on wondering if the Social Credit system is just for parallel reconstruction of events or not (or maybe both).
Also, people have tweeted at the technology in action.

is a good demo of what they appear to be doing
For the first one they are doing object classification & identification in realtime.
The second one is identifying crowds using a heatmap.
- themodelplumber 8y agoI don't mean to play it down, but honestly classifying objects and identifying crowds don't seem like super valuable outcomes from such a huge investment. I guess I expected something like "persistently label and narrow down the definition of an object over the span of multiple occasions" or "identify the intent or demeanor of a crowd".
- zitterbewegung 8y agoDo you realize if you did this at scale how much faster you could look through recordings ? And that this is a manual process currently? Also, they are just starting out .
- nunya213 8y agoThey are using this to routinely pull wanted criminals out of crowds using facial recognition. Seems valuable especially to somewhere like China that likes to grab particular people.
