The AI gun detection system implemented at Antioch High School was put into question after a shooting incident where the technology failed to recognize a concealed firearm. The $1 million Omnilert system utilized school security cameras combined with AI to detect hidden weapons. However, it did not work in this case due to the specific location of the firearm and the shooter's position. School officials defended the system as having performed effectively in the past, albeit acknowledging that no system can guarantee complete detection of all firearms.
The location of the shooter and the firearm meant that the weapon was not visible; this highlights flaws in the positioning of the cameras.
There's no system that's going to 100 percent capture everything a person has on them, but this isn't a total failure of AI technology.
