Share to twitterFaceApp is a massively popular face-altering app for Android and iOS, but there are privacy concerns about its AI tech.No, FaceApp isn't taking photos of your face and taking them back to Russia for some nefarious project. At least that's what current evidence suggests.
But one tweet set of a minor internet panic this week, when a developer warned that the app could be taking all the photos from your phone and uploading them to its servers without any obvious permission from the user. that this was true, the servers for FaceApp.io were based in Amazon data centers in the U.S. And, as noted by Alderson, the app also uses third party code, and so will reach out to their servers, but again these are based in the U.S. and Australia.Of course, given the developer company is based in St. Petersburg, the faces will be viewed and processed in Russia.
If it is just for fun russians will never do it.
why the caption? whenever 'flagged' states like Russia is involved in something nice, you include insecurities as a headline? this is really partisan of forbes
Obviously. It’s gathering information, including whatever is needed for facial recognition, to vote for you again next year.
It's Russian.
Lol
Done, annnd done!.. *Nice try, Commrad*
To me, It’s the last sentence of this paragraph that’s most concerning. Could this AI be trained for improved “deep fakes”? 🤔
No doubt
Ab news me bhi aa gaya😑🙄😲
