How China is using facial recognition as the sharp end of their big data drive for total surveillance via @WashingtonPost #video #surveillance #security #privacy #nowhere2hide | WHY IT MATTERS: Digital Transformation | Scoop.it

Facial recognition is the new hot tech topic in China. Banks, airports, hotels and even public toilets are all trying to verify people’s identities by analyzing their faces. But the police and security state have been the most enthusiastic about embracing this new technology.

Farid Mheir's insight:

WHY IT MATTERS: this article and video from the Washington Post provide a great over view of what China is doing with face and object recognition as part of its massive 500M cameras (2020 estimates). Nowhere to hide...

Same topic, see the BBC report and video: 7 minutes to get arrested http://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-asia-china-42248056/in-your-face-china-s-all-seeing-state

"Banks, airports, hotels and even public toilets are all trying to verify people’s identities by analyzing their faces." Another unnerving #bigdata trend to look out for in China.

The downside of #drones & #AI- Researchers Create Video to Call for Autonomous Weapons Ban at UN @FLIsrisk

The downside of #drones & #AI- Researchers Create Video to Call for Autonomous Weapons Ban at UN @FLIsrisk | WHY IT MATTERS: Digital Transformation | Scoop.it

In response to growing concerns about autonomous weapons, a coalition of AI researchers and advocacy organizations released a fictitious video on Monday that depicts a disturbing future in which lethal autonomous weapons have become cheap and ubiquitous. The video was launched in Geneva, where AI researcher Stuart Russell presented it at an event at the United Nations Convention on Conventional Weapons hosted by the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots. Russell, in an appearance at the end of the video, warns that the technology described in the film already exists and that the window to act is closing fast.

Farid Mheir's insight:

WHY IT MATTERS: there is often a downside to advanced technology, especially those that can allow its owner dominance. In this video scenario, humans weaponize drones with AI. But the real danger is for superintelligent AI to turn against us humans.
