Artificial intelligence (AI) could hold the key to hiding your personal photos from unwanted facial recognition software and fraudsters, all without destroying the image quality.
A new study from Georgia Tech university, published July 19 to the pre-print arXiv database, details how researchers created an AI model called "Chameleon," which can produce a digital "single, personalized privacy protection (P-3) mask" for personal photos that thwarts unwanted facial scanning from detecting a person's face. Chameleon will instead cause facial recognition scanners to recognize the photos as being someone else.
