Chinese facial recognition system mistakes a face on a bus for a jaywalker

China’s facial recognition systems are used to catch all types of criminals, from thieves to jaywalkers, in real time.

This week, one facial recognition camera publicly shamed a famous business woman for jaywalking after its systems caught her face crossing an intersection.

The problem?

She was never physically there.
