Flock's AI Tool Exposes a Dark Pattern in Surveillance Tech Flock, a company already under scrutiny for its invasive automated license plate reader (ALPR) technology, has developed a new AI tool that tracks and identifies people based on their driving habits.
The software, dubbed OS Investigate by Wired, uses a network of cameras in 6,000 communities to monitor drivers' movements.
At its core, OS Investigate is an advanced search tool that allows officers to input prompts to identify potential witnesses or suspects based on driving patterns.
