EXPOSING.ai
A research project tracing the origins and endpoints of biometric image datasets built "in the wild", and how ordinary photographs became an information supply chain for the global face recognition industry.
Exposing.ai is a research project about the origins and endpoints of biometric image datasets created "in the wild". The project investigates how photos have unwittingly become part of an information supply chain powering the global biometrics industry.
Research from the Exposing.ai project has been featured in the Financial Times, New York Times, Nature, a US Government Accountability Report, the 2020 AI Index, several academic research papers, and has helped push forward an urgent discussion about the ethics of dataset collection into public discourse.
