AI Could Help Stop Retail Theft

    We could catch a lot of those store thieves who use our cards. A data system -- what we need is a data system.
    Many stores -- I know Walmart does -- have video cameras filming the cashier aisles. You tell the security officer the date and time, and he can produce a video of the transaction and give it to the police.
    The police could help us here, if they were just to use AI. Then, matches could be made with other fraudulent transactions in the state, whether at banks or at other stores. Even a list of possible matching driver's licenses could be generated.
    Currently, the police do little. If you are lucky, they will go pick up the video and put it in the case file, but it rarely goes further than that. The case is closed. This should not be. We could catch many of these criminals.
