    An AI camera in a self driving car is absolutely not a citizen, so therefore cannot do a citizens arrest, even if this fits into that definition.

      Oh no, I don’t think this fits into the definition, it’s just that the statement I quoted seemed strange. And the company would probably argue it’s a citizen’s arrest if this ever went to court.
