Google employees are stopping people in public and offering them a US$5 gift card in exchange for their facial data. The company is thought to be working on a Face ID authentication system for the Pixel 4.
«I assume they’ll use the data to train a neural network to be able to recognize what a face is,» he replied. «Then you train your own phone on what your specific face looks like. And that’s what gets used to unlock your phone, Face ID-style, but more accurately.»
Add three zeroes to that Google, and then I’ll discuss it.
