Huntington Deploys AI Cameras for Safer Streets | Charleston News
Description
Huntington’s $2 million AI-powered Flock camera rollout promises to revolutionize public safety—cutting suspect capture times from days to minutes, pinpointing gunshots faster than 911, and speeding up emergency response. Police Chief Phil Watkins and Mayor Patrick Farrell tout success stories from cities like San Francisco and San Jose, where the tech slashed crime and nabbed fleeing suspects. But privacy concerns loom: a federal lawsuit in San Jose and an audit revealing unauthorized data access in SF raise alarms. Mayor Farrell vows safeguards will be implemented, even as the city presses ahead to make criminals think twice about coming to town.
