Question 5

A municipal transport authority plans to upgrade its metropolitan bus network. Currently, passengers use a standard contactless smartcard system to tap in and out. The authority intends to replace this with 'TransitEye', an AI-driven system that uses automated facial recognition and gait-analysis cameras at all bus stops and inside vehicles to charge fares automatically. The system also tracks passengers’ real-time locations via a mandatory companion mobile app to dynamically adjust bus schedules, and uses real-time video analytics to flag 'suspicious' or 'disruptive' passenger behavior.

Discuss the positive and negative impacts of this upgrade. Your response should include:

  • Ethical issues
  • Privacy issues
  • Legal issues
