#1156 – CCTV

I remember when I was a kid how facial recognition software was a crazy thing reserved for sci-fi movies. I was really excited when I got my first taste of it on my own computer. I was simultaneously amazed at how good and bad it was. It worked great at finding more pictures of people I had already identified but it also constantly found faces in rocks and trees. My favorite moment though was when I scanned a photo of myself at 2 years old and it identified the face as belonging to my then 2 year old son.
