A friend of mine asked me if my company was hiring because his manager disclosed that the company, he works for uses AI to tag employees as they badge-in for the day and it's creeping him out. The manager told him that initially it was for detecting things like active shooters but branched out into facial recognition generally, dress code enforcement, and potentially mood detection and other creepy stuff like that. This discussion apparently got prompted because the manager had to tell him he was wearing shorts into work against the dress code and that he needed to wear full-length slacks instead. Apparently, the desire to correct this 'issue' came from above the manager who didn't care. Makes me wonder what the fuck the cameras are doing staring at me when I go into work every day.
