Amazon's face ID tool matches 28 US politicians to mugshots
Amazon's facial recognition tool called 'Rekognition' matched 28 US politicians to mugshots of people arrested for a crime, according to a test conducted by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). "Nearly 40% of Recoknition's false matches were of people of color, even though they make up only 20% of Congress," ACLU said in a statement. The test cost $12.33.
