> More to the point, figuring out the speed of a moving object is not an AI task- and I don't mean that in the sense of "if it works it's not AI". Reading the number plate, on the other hand… I would be surprised if the AI in any worthwhile self driving car couldn’t detect 90% of categories of unlawful road use. Detecting assaults may be computationlly unreasonable at this point, but there is work on generating 3D meshes which map to all human bodies in a scene, so it’s not unreasonable to draw a line from one to the other. Identifying that a theft has occurred, however, probably can’t be done yet outside carefully controlled conditions. Yet. (I have been given one speeding ticket, but in error because I had sold the car before the incident). |

Yep, that's a honest-to-god AI task :)

I think the closest analogy is pose estimation, where there's quite a bit of work (in particular, I think there's a lot of interest in learning to identify body postures that can lead to a fall, in order to reduce injuries to older people). I don't remember seeing work on identifying criminal intent in particular, though.
My intuition is that it's more than a matter of computational resources and will require some algorithmic advances. But, you never know.

Automation, eh? :)
