The Machine Sees What It’s Told to See
Cadbury’s Cocoa Life program says their AI can spot child labor with 85% accuracy, but only within the GPS locations given to them by cocoa cooperatives. That means if a child like Kofi walks out of the cocoa field and into a nearby mine, the system stops tracking him.
“Our satellites can identify children carrying machetes or cocoa sacks,” said a Nestlé sustainability officer, who asked not to be named. “But if that same child enters a mine pit after school? Our system marks that as ‘out of scope.’”
