There’s no AI I think that could have detected a small firearm easily concealed.
The idea with these kinds of systems are meant to allow early warning when possible.
No system is going to be 100%.
Edit: I get the downvotes, but there are people/companies that were/are developing such systems with a genuine intent to make things better. I know, because I was one of them.

AI in this context is useless though, you could paint marker “not a gun” on the side of a gun and guess what would happen. It has some uses, but 95% of what is being used for and 100% of the data centers aren’t it.

The cheap system I have with a Google Coral and FOSS software is pretty good about detecting people and dogs from my camera streams. Sometimes it detects my one dog as a small bear if I haven’t cut his hair recently. Having such systems as a later if defense is good. As the only defense, not so much.
