NYC using AI to track subway fare evasion

Seven undisclosed subway stations in New York City are now equipped with some type of artificial intelligence to track fare evasion.

According to reports, subway fare evasion cost the city $285 million in 2022.

Now, the newly introduced system works and claims to use AI and “computer technology” to compare the number of paid fares with the actual number of riders. At stations where the new system is used, the evasion rate was measured at about 16%.
