Probably because he was with some of them trading Pokémon cards at the time, couldn’t have been him, everyone has a doppelgänger

Come to think of it, how accurately can facial recognition tell apart to people who look very similar?

[–] cecilkorik@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 hour ago

Zero. Zero accurately. They don't even talk about it, because they don't care. The arbitrary cruelty is a bonus feature.

Not at all, but that’s the court’s problem I guess.

Facial recognition has an inherent bias as well, or at least it did not too long ago. It was mostly trained on white people, so it's accuracy with non whites was really bad. I'm sure the training data is far more robust now, but that doesn't necessarily mean better.

You must be mistaken, he was helping me load up my truck with mulch for the community garden. He even bought me lunch afterwards.
