PimEyes, a platform that uses facial recognition AI to allow users to find images of themselves on the web, has been using photographs of deceased people to train its algorithm. PimEyes responds to using images of deceased people to train its AIImage: Unsplash. The problem, Scarlett points out, is that there’s no way to make PimEyes go back and stop using the images of a deceased person to train its AI. Gobronidze, however, has not given any further explanation on how they collect data to train their AI. The facial recognition platform claims to be eliminating any data collected from deceased people.
