A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Last I heard, computers couldn't reliably identify black people as human, so this is going to piss off a lot of people.

Anyway, please tell me my hypothetical child and I won't be subjected to this insanity unless I opt in.

Yes I'm sure it'll be plagued by technical problems, and obviously the privacy implications.

As for opting in -- that depends on whether this is approved as a method and then who adopts it and whatever they decide. Unless they're brain dead there will need to be a process for failures, so that could conceivably apply to people who opt out as well
