That sounds absurd. There is easily 5000 regular shoppers in a grocery store. Plus people buying there irregularly. They would need to reliably identify every single one of them, with face recognition only having 80-90% accuracy. and If we talk 5$ missacounted per shoppinge once a week that is 4 years of shopping.
The amount of data needed to be stored and analysed for that is insane.
And then we are not even at the point, where they can prove theft on every single instance, because they need to prove that the system did not malfunction, or a simple user error occured.
i’ll believe it, when i see the first convictions coming out of it. On a side note, AI face recording all your customers and for years storing exact data, when they came and went, what they bought and ehat they alledgedly have stolen would be extremely illegal in the EU.
Not in the US and on private property. You wave all privacy rights when you enter their store.
Also in public places as well.
Want privacy, stay home in the US… Just saying…

I call bullshit on that.
I know Target does it for sure.

Hmm, interesting read! Seems like some track and others don’t.

You think Kroger can’t process that much data?
