> we will delegate decisions to AI systems because they can get away with everything that we can’t.
This is one of the main reasons I quit the Facial Recognition industry; it is being used to delegate decisions, to remove responsibility of those decisions from those that need to be held accountable.
I worked as principal engineer of one of the top 5 enterprise FR systems globally, and the number of end-users fraudulently abusing the software blew my mind. Case in point: police called for a street crime, police ask the victims what celebrity their culprit looks like, police then put images of that celebrity into their FR software to collect suspects, followed by ordinary innocents who happen to look like celebrities being called into lineups and harassed by the police. And this practice is widespread!!!
That is just one example of how incredibly stupid people using our software will use our software, potentially harming large numbers of innocents.
