    LIVE WEBCAST -- How to build guardrails for facial recognition technology

    When: Thursday, December 5, 2019, 8:45 - 9:30 a.m. EST

    Where: https://www.brookings.edu/events/how-to-build-guardrails-for-facial-recognition-technology/ 

    What: Facial recognition technology has raised many questions about privacy, surveillance, and bias. Algorithms can identify faces but do so in ways that threaten privacy and introduce biases. Already, several cities have called for limits on the use of facial recognition by local law enforcement officials. Now, a bipartisan bill introduced in the Senate proposes new guardrails for the use of facial recognition technology by federal law enforcement agencies.

    On Thursday, December 5, the Center for Technology Innovation at Brookings will feature Senators Chris Coons (D-Del.) and Mike Lee (R-Utah), who introduced the bipartisan Facial Recognition Technology Warrant Act this past November. The discussion will focus on how placing procedural safeguards on facial recognition technology, such as requiring warrants and limiting the duration of surveillance, can alleviate concerns over security and privacy while encouraging innovation.

    After the session, panelists will take audience questions. This event will be webcast live. Join the conversation on Twitter at #AIGovernance.
