The Perils of Face Recognition
ÃÖÀ±¿µ °­³²Æ÷½ºÆ® Çлý±âÀÚ | ½ÂÀÎ 2020.07.15 19:52

Tidings all around the world have taken up arms to fight for Black rights after recent incidents involving George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Elijah McClain, and more. #ACAB (All Cops Are Bastards) is trending on all social media platforms as people are condemning the police for their flawed and racist system. In a time like this, it is crucial to take a pause and check for any more deficiencies in the police department system.

Earlier this year, Robert Williams, a Black man living in Detroit, was wrongfully arrested in front of his wife and daughters (ages 2 and 5) after a facial recognition software owned by the Michigan State Police identified him as a watch thief. After a shop security guard, who had not witnessed the stealing, confirmed his “guiltiness,” Williams was imprisoned. Williams spent a night in a jail cell until he was allowed to see the image on the surveillance feed, to which he claimed: “I hope you all don’t think all Black men look alike.”

Williams's name was eventually cleared, but that does not make this incident a dismissable matter. The harm has been done: Williams’s arrest is now on the record and his DNA sample, mugshot, and fingerprints are now on his file. Williams’s loved ones cannot unsee him being arrested, and his children play games involving the arrest and accuse him of stealing things from them.

Facial recognition has a differential performance with a factor of up to 100 depending on the skin color and gender of the subject. Though we are aware that such glitches in the system could get one arrested for physical attributes completely unrelated to crime, the FBI and many police departments continue to use it in secret. Legislations already in place do not seem to have much impact as leads from the technology are enough to land on conclusions (as it did with Williams).

Technology is evolving nonstop and it is our duty to keep up with it and its moral footprints. Facial recognition in police departments has been banned in certain states in California and Massachusetts, but it is critical that more states follow suit and no more men have to experience what Williams had to go through. After all, this broken technology only equips a racist system with a tool for injustice. To address police brutality, we need to address its technologies too.
