Is facial recognition software discriminatory?
[ Mon, 21 Dec 2009 21:58:08 GMT ]

Desi Cryer was at work in a retail store with a fellow employee, who is white, when the two recorded a test of the facial recognition software on an HP computer and posted the result on YouTube. The camera did not follow Cryer's movements, but did follow those of his white co-worker. HP says it is looking into what happened and why.A video posted on YouTube shows HP's facial recognition software tracking the movements of a white face, but not a black one, something the video's maker calls "racist," but the computer giant says is definitely not.
