It's also important to note that every single AI identification schema to date has a disturbingly high false positive rate for it to be used in military or policing actions. Innocent people are being arrested or killed, and yet often the equipment itself isn't even owned or operated by the government.

I completely agree but I still can't help but jokingly say that innocent people are being arrested and killed already so it wouldn't be much of a change ๐
I believe that the existing issue of arrests on false charges/misidentification is due to the abrogation of responsibility on the parts of the decision makers. These AI tools will further contribute to that problem, but it also presents a huge leap in the number of misidentifications leading to death (esp. military use, as in Gaza currently) or incarceration/charges (like the street cams the London "Bladerunners" are famously disabling) already.
