Flock Safety's AI-powered gunshot detection technology, piloted in San Jose, initially had a 50 percent accuracy rate with 34 percent false positives. After recalibration, accuracy improved to 81 percent with 7 percent false alarms. Communities of color expressed concerns about the potential dangers of police responses to false alerts. The technology's reliability is crucial as false positives can lead to unnecessary police dispatch, impacting trust and safety. San Jose's transparency with accuracy data contrasts with the typically opaque reporting of such technology's performance.
