Artificial Intelligence Powered Facial Recognition Technology

Brenda Leong, Senior Counsel and Director of Strategy with Future of Privacy Forum based in the United States participate in Risk Roundup to discuss Artificial Intelligence Powered Facial Recognition Technology.

Artificial Intelligence Powered Facial Recognition Technology

Powered by Artificial Intelligence, Facial Recognition Technology is here.

While facial recognition technology has been steadily advancing over the years, what is different now is the high-speed processing capability and the ability to use artificial intelligence (AI) to identify any single individual from an enormous pool of diverse possibilities with much greater accuracy and efficiency. This has enormous implications.

Facial Recognition Technology Applications

Although facial recognition technology has been traditionally associated with the surveillance and security sector, over the years there has been an active expansion of the technology into many different components of a nation. As a result, it is fundamentally changing the way we do many things across nations: its government, industries, organizations, and academia (NGIOA).

Furthermore, as computer vision continues to get better over the coming months and years, and the technology achieves further ability to determine any individuals exact physical, mental, and emotional state; we will likely see a rapid increase in the implementation of facial recognition technology on not only humans but on animals, machines and much more.

Facial Recognition Technology Impact

Due to rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI) driven facial recognition technology, and its rapid acceptance and adoption– it has become necessary to understand the scale of change that is underway across nations. Moreover, it is also important to understand what industry solutions are available today and will be available in the coming tomorrow, where is facial recognition technology applied today and where will it be applied in the coming tomorrow, and so on. As nations explore facial recognition technology further, it is important to evaluate its impact across nations and all its components.

Time is now to talk about risks emerging from Artificial Intelligence Powered Facial Recognition Technology.
