Cops Used DNA to Predict a Suspect’s Face—and Tried to Run Facial Recognition on It (www.wired.com)

For facial recognition experts and privacy advocates, the East Bay detective’s request, while dystopian, was also entirely predictable. It emphasizes the ways that, without oversight, law enforcement is able to mix and match technologies in unintended ways, using untested algorithms to single out suspects based on unknowable...

Dude facial recognition catches the wrong people all the time. It is not as infallible as they make it out to be and this is just adding an entire extra level of mistakes they can make.

Facial recognition tech is bogus and because of its technical limitations, unintentionally(?) racist. (ie the cameras are not designed well to take good photo/video of dark skin, leading to high false positive rates when it comes to dark-skinned people) edit: even further, the cameras are often too small of a resolution for quality matching.

Further, facial reconstruction based on DNA isn’t exactly super accurate on its own.

Please don’t fall for this bullshit.

I’m not Scott Aukerman, I’m just one of his many names…

TrickShotterman, AfterShockerman, ShockJockerman, YachtRockerman, Blog Gawkerman, Stop Clockerman, Flip Flopperman, Crop Circleman, Flash Backerman, Bob Johnson… Oh wait.

I like to think of Snot Flickerman as one of those newscasters played by Tom Kenny.

They really needed to do something about that gorilla problem at the warehouse. Gone too soon.

Considering their methodology, I wonder how many of these are Steam Decks registering as “desktops” when they visit a website in the web broweser?

At the Last Light Inn in Act II, before you speak to Isobel and trigger her attempted kidnapping, make sure to use Arcane Lock on all the doors you can (usually all but one of them) to prevent more enemies from flooding her room.

Except this literally happened to old single season anime FLCL which started getting new seasons fifteen years later.
