With such enthusiasm for facial recognition amongst the corporate world, I often see people make the assumption that it most work or it wouldn't be so popular. And maybe it does in some situations. But Coded Bias, focusing largely on facial recognition, highlights the other side of the discussion - the aspect that us often ignored by the senior decision makers. And sure, it is easy to so "only impacts minorities" - but in my city, only around 25% of people are white males, so the minority can be pretty big. Strongly recommended

Ironically, this "documentary" is biased af. Only shows one side of the problem and cherry picks specific examples. Don't waste your time.

A pure white drama mask is on the cover. Is it tragedy or comedy? I'm not sure how hard it is or would be to map-out black (lighter-skinned, bi-racial POC would have Recognizable Face Privilege!) faces. There are Europeans from the Balkans with darker skin than many people considered to be bkack. Italians, Serbs, Greeks...blacker than blacks! That's where the Ethnic Recognition Retinal Scanner comes in handy! Or, imagine an African country trying to spy on its citizens. They'd get the Black-African Facial Recognition!
