Description

With applications from healthcare to policing, how do we apply facial recognition software and other biometric technology to society without damaging either democracy or the social solidarity that underpins healthcare? And how can we make sure that companies are using biometric data in ways which respect individual agency. In this episode, we talk to Ada Lovelace Researcher Harry Farmer about his own work and fears surrounding biometric technology, and how we as a society can work to mitigate those concerns.
