Description
When Face Recognition Goes Wrong explores the complexities and pitfalls of facial recognition technology. By examining the mistakes humans and machines make in this area, the book sheds light on issues such as racial and gender biases, neuropsychological disorders, and algorithmic problems.
The author draws on personal anecdotes and real-world examples to illustrate the often life-changing consequences of facial recognition errors, ranging from everyday social interactions to miscarriages of justice and border control passport verification. The book concludes by looking to the future of facial recognition and seeking answers from leading experts on what still needs to be addressed.
