Interview #100 Peter Evans, CEO at Xtract One Technologies

Peter Evans, CEO at Xtract One Technologies, breaks down why many AI weapons scanners at school and stadium entrances still measure the wrong things. He explains why most "AI-enabled" detectors rest on the same physics as a walk-through metal detector, why knives and laptops expose the limits of that physics, and why a claim of 3,000 people an hour means little if a weak model sends most of them to a bag check. Peter also dives into how to estimate the weapons a system misses when nobody reports them, who should own the sensitivity dial, and what should have happened before police drew weapons on a teenager after a Maryland AI camera mistook a bag of chips for a gun. Finally, he shares why mandates in California and Georgia are racing ahead of testing standards, what an entrance should never be allowed to know about you, and why a 3D printed gun is still not invisible.
