Video Surveillance System That Reasons Like a Human 143
An anonymous reader writes "BRS Labs has created a technology it calls Behavioral Analytics which uses cognitive reasoning, much like the human brain, to process visual data and to identify criminal and terroristic activities. Built on a framework of cognitive learning engines and computer vision, AISight, provides an automated and scalable surveillance solution that analyzes behavioral patterns, activities and scene content without the need for human training, setup, or programming."

The "machine learning engine" is a "datacenter" (warehouse) full of cheap African laborers who are all watching the cameras.
(this is a joke, it just isn't funny, and it is meant to illustrate a point. See the next line): God/nature/FSM/evolution/al gore/$deity has done a pretty damn good job at building our brains, why are we trying to reinvent that wheel in a computer?
Because the owners of those brains get all whiny when you try to stick them in jars and make them solve the problems you want to solve, rather than sitting around watching porn? Really, sticking a bunch of brains in a 19" rack is harder than you'd think.
