According to Diane Greene, facial recognition technology has "inherent biases".
A firm from China have developed a facial recognition system that can work on people wearing masks.
Dame Cressida Dick has slammed critics of facial recognition technology, saying they are simply "ill-informed".
After several terrorist attacks in Germany over the past year ended in tragedy, the country is working to find a balance between privacy and potentially life-saving surveillance. A pilot project testing face recognition technology in Berlin's busy Sudkreuz train station has been scanning faces of passengers for the past 6 months and comparing them to a database of volunteer criminals. About 300 volunteers submitted photos to the project and agreed to allow their faces to be recognized by the system if they transited the station.
Students at the No.11 High School in Hangzhou are the first in the world to use facial recognition to pay for food at their cafeteria. Pupils order food on screens and pay for their meals by standing before facial recognition screens. Face data from each student is collected and stored into the school's database. When students order food, the program compares their face to the database and automatically deducts money from their account. Students never have to bring cash or cards with them to school and payment becomes quicker and more efficient, but what do you think about the privacy issues?
