    There’s some guy and his corporation that has a facial recognition program that he contends is 96.4% accurate in identifying images of people entered into it. He matches the photo against a data bank of photos captured largely from social media with over 4 billion people pictured. He claims he only makes the program available to law legitimate enforcement organizations and some banks, but the news program I watched on this says his shareholders want to expand its clientele. His company is being sued for various things now, and it is becoming a thing in the media. So, enter your photos in sites on the net if you want to join in his game.

    I am curious if I could be identified.

    Joe, I'm reasonably sure that most people who can identify you would rather not admit it......

    Yeah, Las Vegas casinos are already using facial recognition technology. So far, I have not seen the general public impacted by it. But, of coarse, most of what the major casinos do with security stays off the public radar.

    They need to identify and toss out successful “card counters” who legitimately beat their system, as well as real cheaters, crooks and thieves.

    My father took a course in card counting from a private provider. And, my father is the only person I know who can ALWAYS win at poker. However, the old buy gave up gambling after becoming LDS.

    So, most of my family is now Mormon. But, It's not as bad as it sounds. It merely means if I want wine with dinner, I must bring it.
