AI Gun Detection Falsely Flags Clarinet, Locks Down School
An AI at a school wrongly thought a clarinet was a gun, causing a big lockdown and scaring students and parents. This mistake shows that AI safety tools in schools can be unreliable, making errors like mixing up snacks or musical instruments with weapons. These false alarms interrupt classes, stress everyone, and make it hard for people to trust the system. Experts say schools need better safeguards and clear rules when using these systems. The fear of being wrongly flagged also makes students more anxious at school.
