Facial Recognition Technology: A Double-Edged Sword

The use of facial recognition technology by a unit of the Department of Homeland Security, aided by Clearview AI, has led to successful arrests of individuals involved in heinous activities, leveraging previously seized material. This showcases a positive application of the technology. However, a contrasting story highlights a pregnant woman in Detroit wrongfully arrested for carjacking due to a mistaken identity from a facial recognition system. This incident underscores the need for policy development to prevent misuse of the technology, especially considering documented cases of false charges primarily targeting black individuals.
