I've created an educational game in which you can try to fool a face recognition algorithm by making funny faces. It's 100% privacy friendly, running locally in your own browser.

Technically. But as a European I'd already be in a lot of trouble for breaking the law, since the website promises to not collect personal data. What you can do is check the javascript code for any 'http'. So open https:&#x2

The main one is FaceApiJS. One I trained myself (BMI), and the others I just scavenged from existing Github projects. So with most of these I don't know how they were trained, what photos they were fed, etc.

That's difficult to say. You could start with getting to to know an issue and specialising in it. Reading books from academic writers (not the stuff sold at airport bookstores). Read Slashdot. Once you've got a grasp, think about

Ah, so that's it! Thanks!

That would be great actually. I've enabled debug mode. Add ?debug to the end of the url to get a peak under the engine. So: https://www.hownormalami.eu/?debug

Actually, the checkbox does nothing. It's just for show :-)

Yes you are correct.

You may enjoy this blogpost I made that goes into how the BMI prediction algorithm was developed. It's the only one in the project that I trained myself. https://www.sherpapieces.eu/overview/predicting-your-bmi-fro

Yikes. I'll look into it. I take it you tried the button in the top-left to switch? Were you able to select the other camera if you reloaded the page?

Creator here. It sounds like the main face detection algorithm (faceApiJS) wasn't able to load somehow. Then it will just try to keep you entertained by spouting funny loading sentences. Try refreshing the page, or using a different br

Creator here. The project was created as part of my role as artist within the Sherpa consortium. It's a Horizon2020 research project whose goal is to figure out what Europeans believe are the biggest issues around AI that we'll ex

That's very strange. It doesn't use cookies at all. I know because I built it :-)

oh, thanks for bringing that to my attention, I'll look into it.

I suspect someone has tried to manipulate their score. I found one database entry that had only an extreme beauty score. I've hardened the system against this now.

You're very welcome.

I found the issue, and it should hopefully be fixed. It happened if your IP address couldn't be used to predict your location.

Age and gender are derived using the FaceApiJS project. In my own experience it's doesn't vary as wildly if you're a white male. With other ethnicities the predictability levels can drop, especially if you're Asian.

Yikes. Thanks, I'll look into it. The terms and conditions have no influence on this, but it could that that one of the scores required to create the life expectancy prediction is missing (age, gender, bmi, country).

You're right! Thanks, I've fixed it!

Alright, in that case it's a real service ;-)

Indeed, it's not a real service. It just pretends to be. You can just use the tool for free. Although as time passes, it seems maybe it should be real...

I'm the creator of the website. It has a simple PHP text file counter. That's all it has, and I'd argue it's enough. I want people to be able to visit this website without any fear of tracking and profiling. It's a

This sounds fascinating, but I can't seem to find more information online. Do you perhaps have a link or some keywords I should add to the search query?

Actually I just meant to refer to Foucault's analysis of Bentham's panopticon prison concept.

Thank you for posting this, saves me the trouble :-) I re-read Deleuze's three-page paper every year. It really describes things well.
