Given that politicians are all crooks, by definition ...

"tests showed Amazon’s Recognition systems incorrectly matched one in five California politicians with images of 25,000 criminals held in a database."

Only one in five ... that's an 80% failure rate. Was it Amazon's AI that missed them, or were they incorrectly not included in the database?
