Interesting. Are we equally ambivalent about identification?

EU: Facial recognition at airports: individuals should have maximum control over biometric data

From the European Data Protection Board (EDPB), May 24:

Brussels, 24 May – During its latest plenary, the EDPB adopted an Opinion on the use of facial recognition technologies by airport operators and airline companies to streamline the passenger flow at airports. This Article 64(2) Opinion, following a request from the French Data Protection Authority, addresses a matter of general application and produces effects in more than one Member State.

There is no uniform legal requirement in the EU for airport operators and airline companies to verify that the name on the passenger’s boarding pass matches the name on their identity document, and this may be subject to national laws. Therefore, where no verification of the passengers’ identity with an official identity document is required, no such verification with the use of biometrics should be performed, as this would result in an excessive processing of data.





We knew that, but here a list of supporting “don’ts.” (AI can’t say, “I don’t know.” )

Why You Shouldn't Trust ChatGPT to Summarize Your Text

There are limits to what ChatGPT knows. And its programming forces it to deliver what you ask for, even if the result is wrong. This means ChatGPT makes mistakes, and moreover, there are some common mistakes it makes, especially when it’s summarizing information and you’re not paying attention.
