Appearances:



Identity Week America - Day 1 @ 14:20

Cognitive surrender: Why your FR operators trust the algorithm too much (and what to do about it)

Cognitive Surrender and the Face Recognition Workflow

Half of all people fail to notice a gorilla walk through a basketball game. Trained border agents routinely clear travelers whose faces don’t match their passports. And when we finally hand the job to an algorithm that can actually do it, research shows nearly 80% of us accept whatever it tells us, right or wrong. The weakest sensor in the face recognition pipeline has never been the camera. This talk explores what happens when we stop looking, stop matching, and stop thinking, and what it means for how we design the workflows that matter most.
