Face recognition technology has advantages and disadvantages, and protecting privacy starts with artificial intelligence
While improvements in facial recognition technology are on the rise, privacy concerns surrounding the technology are also surfacing. Imagine a world where you don't need cash, a card or your phone, just smile at the cashier and pay for your order. Today, facial recognition technology is integrated into every aspect of our daily life, and countries around the world are showing the bright side and the dark side of using facial recognition technology. Face recognition is a kind of biometric technology based on human facial feature information for identification. A series of related technologies that use cameras or cameras to collect images or video streams containing faces, and automatically detect and track faces in the images, and then perform face recognition on the detected faces. . Facial recognition is not a new technology, but artificial intelligence and machine learning continue to make facial recognition better. While modern technology has made facial recognition more accurate and secure, concerns have also been raised related to facial recognition privacy issues and surveillance. So what are the advantages of facial recognition technology? 1. Enhanced security Facial recognition can be performed more efficiently with the help of 3D biometric systems and infrared cameras. Company premises can be protected by monitoring employees and visitors. Furthermore, intruders can be instantly identified. Therefore, facial recognition can greatly improve workplace safety. For example, the concert of Jacky Cheung, the god of song, caught many fugitives through facial recognition technology. 2. High precision With the help of artificial intelligence and machine learning, face recognition has achieved a higher success rate. Therefore, the chances of cheating the system are greatly reduced. Now, security systems can accurately identify those who enter private property illegally and notify the appropriate authorities. 3. Automation Facial recognition technology can automate processes instead of hiring security officials to identify people. Manual identification can be a tedious process and presents opportunities for error. However, facial recognition works 24/7 to automatically recognize faces and provide more reliable results. What are the disadvantages of facial recognition technology? 1. Storage The storage space for all images and videos is one of the important issues for facial recognition technology. Additionally, registering faces into recognition software requires extra space for each new employee. High-definition quality images can produce error-free results, but increase the storage requirements of the system. 2. Privacy Issues Many civil society organizations are concerned about facial recognition privacy issues and imply a lot of freedom issues. Using artificial intelligence and machine learning in conjunction with facial recognition can help identify facial expressions and understand emotions associated with expressions. Additionally, analyzing facial expressions can be used to obtain customer feedback in retail stores and to advertise products that receive good feedback.
