It’s not perfect, but it’s more than just comparing your photo to your drivers license photo.
Edit: looks like there may be a second program that does just what you say: https://www.tsa.gov/biometrics-technology/evaluating-facial-identification-technology https://www.tsa.gov/biometrics-technology/evaluating-facial-...
This is the program that I am aware of: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT213329 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT213329

Probably that second link you found.
