⑵Nowhere to Hide
⑶Eventually, continuous facial recording and gadgets that paint puterized data onto the real world might change the texture of social interactions. Dissembling helps grease the wheels of daily life. If your partner can spot every suppressed yawn, and your boss every grimace of irritation, marriages and working relationships will be more truthful, but less harmonious. The basis of social interactions might change, too, from a set of mitments founded on trust to calculations of risk and reward derived from the information a puter attaches to someone’s face. Relationships might bee more rational, but also more transactional.
⑷Such rules cannot alter the direction of travel, however. Cameras will only bee more mon with the spread of wearable devices. Efforts to bamboozle facial-recognition systems, from sunglasses to make-up, are already being overtaken; research from the University of Cambridge shows that artificial intelligence can reconstruct the facial structures of people in disguise. Google has explicitly turned its back on matching faces to identities, for fear of its misuse by undemocratic regimes…Change is ing. Face up to it.
