在过去25年里，美国花费数十亿美元在其南部边境沿线建造了由监控塔组成的“虚拟墙”，并承诺这将有助于发现并逮捕非法越境者，挽救生命。然而，《MIT科技评论》的一项突破性调查记录了超过一千人在这些监控塔覆盖区域内移动却未被拦截或逮捕，并最终在那里丧生。其中一些人甚至处于新安装的、旨在自动识别人物的AI驱动监控塔的监视之下。

我们的研究结果揭示了一场比以往所知更为明显的人道主义危机，以及虚拟墙基本安全承诺的屡次失败。观看一场探讨边境监控技术失败并揭示在边境地区死亡的人们故事的对话。

演讲者：主编马特·霍南（Mat Honan）、高级AI记者詹姆斯·奥唐纳（James O'Donnell）以及高级专题与调查记者郭颖（Eileen Guo）

Listen to the session or watch below

The US has spent billions building a “virtual wall” of surveillance towers along its southern border over the past 25 years, promising they will help detect and apprehend border crossers and save lives. But a groundbreaking investigation by MIT Technology Review has documented over a thousand people who moved through areas watched by these towers without being reached or apprehended, and who ultimately died there. Some were even under the watch of newly installed AI-powered towers designed to spot people automatically.

Our findings reveal a humanitarian crisis more visible than previously known, and repeated failures of the virtual wall’s basic security promise. Watch a conversation examining the failures of border surveillance technology and uncovering the stories of the people who die in the borderlands.

Speakers: Mat Honan, editor in chief, James O'Donnell, senior AI reporter, and Eileen Guo, senior features and investigations reporter
