The attached article shows how automated or computerised facial recognition is NOT a panacea to spotting criminals. The article highlights the following issues:
13000 faces were scanned resulting in just ONE arrest
Facial recognition devices identified the wrong person seven out of eight times
Cameras failed to spot any suspects out of 4,600 faces in London last February
Campaigners say cameras are 'dangerously inaccurate and waste public money
Human Super Recognisers can make such systems more effective. BUT humans are also cheaper and more effective. AND their identifications can be used as EVIDENCE in court.
