A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.

Edit: the truth is that saying x% accuracy isn’t entirely correct, because the Numbers just don’t work that way. It’s just a way we convey the data to the average person. I can’t count the amount of times I’ve had asked “ok, but what doesn’t mean in terms of accuracy? What’s the accuracy percentage?”
And I understand what you’re saying now. Yes I did have the number written down incorrectly as a percentage. I’m on mobile this whole time doing a hundred other things. I added two extra digits.
