A 61-year-old man is suing Macy’s and the parent company of Sunglass Hut over the stores’ alleged use of a facial recognition system that misidentified him as the culprit behind an armed robbery and led to his wrongful arrest. While in jail, he was beaten and raped, according to his suit.
People do not understand that a system that can identify 1 in a million, will have on average 999+ FALSE positives for every TRUE positive per billion people.
Yeah the headline doesn’t mention that the innocent dude was sexually assaulted while in jail. I’m just shaking my head right now. That’s so messed up.
