There are many concerns when it comes to facial recognition, including privacy violations and accuracy issues. I think there should be stricter regulations for AI in sensitive areas like law enforcement.

But where do we draw the line between privacy and security? Facial recognition has been useful in security applications too.

I agree. Data used by AI algorithms should always be anonymized to ensure users' privacy.

Another issue with AI is biased decision making due to the biased input data. In numerous cases, AI systems end up favoring majority or stereotypes.

I think it's important for AI developers to adopt more diverse datasets and be transparent about their algorithms, so we can identify potential issues before they get out of control.

Definitely. As AI continues to shape industries and society, it's crucial that we address and mitigate these inherent biases.
