Face Value: The Ethics of Facial Recognition Technology
In this episode of the Viterbi Conversations in Ethics podcast, we explore the ethical dimensions of facial recognition technology. Is our privacy at risk in the age of AI-driven identification? Host Deep Shah sits down with expert guest Jenna German to unpack the benefits and dangers of this pervasive technology—from its role in everyday convenience to the risks it poses through surveillance and identity manipulation. What protections do we have against misuse, and how do we balance technological advancement with ethical responsibility? Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on whether the convenience of facial recognition is worth the potential cost to our privacy and freedom.
