but too much have internet connected cameras in them

Considering that the gen 1 ryzen 3 1200 (the lowest end model) is more than double the performance of the automotive processor in my car from 2023 (3.1ghz quad core vs 2.4ghz dual core)...

what architecture is the CPU in the car? my smartphone is no 3 GHz, and it too can handle image recognition.

But, the car does do some onboard image recognition to support Hands-free driving, so there is enough compute onboard to manage that.

possibly hardware accelerated with some specialized hardware. there's this thing called google coral, it can be connected through PCIe or USB, and can do the heavy lifting for multiple cameras.

a best of lemmy candidate, isn't it?

yes, by subscribing from netflix, forever

edit: yes, it was supposed to be unsubscribing

to add to the image processing, first gen ryzen desktop CPUs can handle basic object classification on live camera feed. not effortlessly, but they handle it, and performance has only ever improved with time.

Pictures are expensive (data wise)

not really. you don't want to keep frames without movement, faces or license plates. then you can throw away most frames from a 60 FPS recording. 2 frames per second is better than nothing for running a portable surveillance station. then you can encode them in some efficient format with acceptable compression, and it's not that much anymore. massive 5G rollout was explicitly happening for IoT devices, to be able to handle the load.

expensive (data wise), and on-device facial identification is not very accurate

debatable. google picasa had pretty good on-device facial recognition more than a decade ago, on average desktop computer hardware. ente.io runs something similar in their smartphone app today, fully locally. detects faces very well even in memes.
tech that can go into a smartphone can go into any smart car too, and likely does.

But how much is that information valuable?

plenty valuable for "partners" like clearview AI and flock, or if you want to become a competitor in that field.

What percent of the time is a car even driving?

that's a wrong question. the correct question is what percent of the time is a car outside of the garage. lots of cars are parked on the street all the time while not driving.

Is palantir even set up to ingest that kind of disparate moving data sources?

how the fuck no. It's less data than what people upload daily to youtube, funded from government money basically.

and then put up less noticeable cameras...

like cameras appearing nowhere any time, like camera cars.

requiring it already even with phones? can I ask what kind of places is it?

the problem is it was already recording you by that time

"but you don't have an expectation of privacy! no!! you don't have and you shouldn't!!!! 😡😥"

let the downvotes rain but it does not matter who is uploading data to meta about its unconsenting environment.

and generated a slop article about it. there are several weird sentences that don't belong there,and the style..

they made sometime in history.

it uses the windows 11 graphical style.
