The issue that facial recognition is racially biased has only ever been an issue for non-industry leaders in facial recognition. And for the point, Amazon and Microsoft and Google have NEVER been industry leaders in FR - they just have enormous marketing budgets. Any police or any article you see where Amazon's FR is being used is an article about that police force being duped by marketing and expecting "best in class" from an organization that does not even rank in the industry as a serious player. The industry leaders in FR can easily be identified by going to the NIST Facial Recognition Vendor Test web site to view the annually ranked testing results from FR vendors who desire to work on Federal government contracts. Also, the media treatment of FR is beyond pathetic. Pretty much every article I encounter is pulp crime level fiction. FWIW, I'm lead developer of one of the industry leading FR applications, typically within the first 4 on the NIST vendor rankings.
