    Facial recognition and AI are great tools to assist law enforcement.
    Relying on them as sole sources of information is just stupid.

      Facial recognition and AI are way to easy to abuse. It significantly out ways the benefits. This technology should be totally banned.

      Especially AI. It will allow unprecedented and appalling levels of inequality. Like walled ghettos. Government AI scares the hell out of me

      The only way they will assist law enforcement in practice is giving the police and excuse to detain the wrong people.

      They should only be used if they are open source, and viewable by the public to be checked for biases and bugs. Unfortunately, they are mostly black box technology made by companies.
