Raw LLM Responses

Facial Recognition is like encryption. You can try to ban it, but it's just math at the end of the day. Everyone else is going to use it so those banned are just at a disadvantage. There's a huge difference between facial rec in public spaces for specific tasks vs. general surveillance. The biggest one I see is law enforcement. Cops are hugely biased by most studies favoring white people over minorities in the US. Something society has largely just accepted as status quo. Replacing police in many of these roles with automated systems is ultimately superior since it levels the playing field, reduces costs and frees up resources for other things. Maybe not for the white guy who now can't break the law and get away with it currently, but certainly for the rest who no longer are singled out and for the society in general who benefits from better adherence to the law. A good example of this is fare evasion on public transit.
