A pilot program testing AI-powered weapons scanners inside some New York City subway stations this summer did not detect any passengers with firearms — but falsely alerted more than 100 times.

    Recreational weed has been legal in NY for years

      Not if there is a federal agent. It is legal here in NM but the feds are constantly seizing pot because it is not legal at a federal level.

        It’s gonna be fun when it’s legal in all 50 states at the state level, but still illegal federally.

        Wait, did I say fun? I meant bullshit. It’s going to be bullshit.

        I don’t think federal agents are using these scanners to find people carrying weed

        That is up to the state’s attorney general whether to go after drug offense or not
