Jalil Richardson, a man from Charlotte, North Carolina, was wrongfully arrested and detained for over a month due to a facial recognition AI misidentification. The AI matched his image with an 85% confidence rate to a suspect in a car theft case, leading to his arrest and subsequent loss of his job, home, and custody of his two children.
