in reply to Tuta • • •This feature makes it way more likely someone else can recover my account than I can.
AI doesn't think I have a face. Almost all of them fail.
My theory is that this is actually all just training for the overwatch AI. Be much harder to train AI on the chaos of watching people mill about than on the flow channeled and logged activities of account recovery and "validated ID".
Make it better. Make it recognize my face and then it can track anyone's.

I also wonder if they ever fixed that problem where AI had a hard time distinguishing people who weren't white from each other.

in reply to Tuta • • •If they really just save those files or even identification data somewhere, they'd have shit opsec. And nobody in their right mind would want such files anywhere near their own system, for legal reasons alone.
I really don't like the company, but I'll wait for technical details before I judge (this time).

Why would anyone voluntarily do this?
