Super Prompt: Generative AI
Fooling Big Brother's Facial Recognition
I speak again with my friend, Maroof Farooq, an AI engineer at Nvidia. [Note: Maroof's views are his and not that of his employer.] We discuss facial recognition, how it can be used for surveillance, and techniques for defeating or fooling it, using props like t-shirts, hats, glasses, and believe or not, makeup! Folks, use this information for only good and not to run from the law, unless the law is the Empire, and you are the Rebel Alliance. Please enjoy this episode.
