San Francisco has become the first U.S. city to ban its government from using facial recognition technology. The city’s Board of Supervisors passed the ban on Tuesday as part of an ordinance that also requires agencies to get its approval to purchase surveillance systems. Supporters of the ban say it will protect against police bias and excessive surveillance. Opponents say the technology can catch criminals and locate missing people.

There are good arguments on both sides of the debate. I wouldn’t advocate an outright ban but privacy issues need to be carefully considered and civil liberties need to be vigilantly guarded. #ai #machinelearning #facialrecognition #civilliberty #privacyprotection

I was wondering how privacy rights would come into play. Curious to see how this plays out in other metropolitan areas. Is this the first of many bans? #facialrecognition

San Francisco is voting to ban the use of Facial Recognition technology in municipalities. Do you consider facial recognition technology a violation of the 4th amendment as alluded to in this article? Does using facial recognition live vs. post production make a difference? #technology #analytics #AI #security #facialrecognition

Interesting precedent which appears to be an acknowledgement of issues in some facial recognition tech. and a desire to prevent uncontrolled proliferation of such technologies in law enforcement and government. https://lnkd.in/gVJN5xu #ai #facialrecognition #banned #bias #bigbrother #lawenforcement #government
The concerns and motivations here may be specific to unwise government use of the technology but moves like this by governments don’t bode well for use of facial recognition in commercial applications and may heighten concerns around its use in the minds of the public. Time will tell. #technology #facialrecognition #eventtechnology

San Francisco officials will vote this week on whether or not to ban the use of facial recognition in its government agencies (https://lnkd.in/gawmsbQ). If passed, the privacy-minded “Stop Secret Surveillance Ordinance” would prevent San Francisco law enforcement from using facial recognition to aid in things like identifying suspects from security cam or police body cam footage. Private and corporate use of the technology in the city, however, would still be allowed. A facial recognition ban in tech-forward San Francisco could wind up serving as an example for other cities, states or US government agencies, making this news more than just a local matter. I'm curious what software engineers working in machine learning and facial recognition think about this. Should use of the emerging technology – in either the private or public sector – be checked by regulators? How could regulation hurt or help innovation in facial recognition? ??: Getty #softwareengineering #ai #facialrecognition
Firstly,? governments have so much information stored on all of us, from shopping habits, to banking info to many other things. Facial recognition is nothing new. That said, I feel there is a place for these systems. Such as schools, sporting events and places where large amounts of people gather. Is it 100%, no. it has a long way to go. Look at China today, they use facial recognition along with Social Scores to control the people. WE cannot allow the United States or Europe and other countries to do this to its people. Moderation is key.?

This software isn’t even fully baked yet for one. And it’s been shown to already misidentify black people. So why would anyone want law enforcement using it? I doubt SF won’t be the first city to disallow this faulty technology
