UK's Met Police force to roll out '81% inaccurate' live facial recognition

The video discusses the use of facial recognition technology by Scotland Yard to identify criminal suspects and missing persons. The system deletes images not on a watch list, retaining only those with alerts for 31 days. Privacy advocates criticize this as a violation of civil liberties. The technology pixelates faces not on a watch list and alerts officers to potential matches. Despite public concerns, the High Court supports its use, and the Home Office backs the police. The technology's accuracy remains debated, with pilot programs ongoing.
