New AI-Based 'Privacy Filter' to Block Facial Recognition Technology !!

Addressing the rising concerns over privacy and data security on social networks, researchers led by one of Indian-origin, have designed a new artificial intelligence(AI)-based algorithm that protects users' privacy by dynamically disrupting facial recognition tools designed to identify faces in photos. "The disruptive AI can 'attack' what the neural net for the face detection is looking for," said lead author Avishek Bose, graduate student at the University of Toronto in Canada. "If the detection AI is looking for the corner of the eyes, for example, it adjusts the corner of the eyes so they're less noticeable. It creates very subtle disturbances in the photo, but to the detector they're significant enough to fool the system," he added. The new system leverages a deep learning technique called adversarial training, which pits two AI algorithms against each other. The team designed a set of two neural networks: the fir...
