Use of facial recognition technology by An Garda Síochána would move Ireland further towards a 'dystopian' surveillance society.She was speaking as Gardaí may soon have the right to use facial recognition to tackle serious crime.It is thought the technology would be used, along with artificial intelligence and expanded surveillance, to allow rapid identification of criminals.But Prof Farries said this technology is unlikely to accomplish its goal.
"Even if the algorithms did get better, improved accuracy doesn't save facial recognition tech from the problems of discrimination"."Do we want to move society towards a scenario where it becomes impossible for anyone to move through spaces and remain just a face in the crowd?
