Don’t jaywalk in Shanghai. The AI camera devices situated at pedestrian crossings in Shangai film anyone crossing or walking in the street or road unlawfully.
Then, a huge LED screen shows the name and face of the individual that just jaywalked across the street and publicly shames the person for everyone to see.
“For anyone wondering, this is a clip from my live stream where we found that a lot of the crosswalks in China,” Jake’n’Bake writes in a comment accompanying his video. “[They] actually have these podiums that tell you when to cross or not to cross. And I guess if you cross when it’s red, it takes a little photo to let you know to not do that again. Thought it was interesting.”
