Facial recognition scans replace boarding passes and tickets in the airline industry over the next 3 years

If I csn avoid flying for the rest of my life, I will. During my last years b in Alaska I was logging a lot of flight miles and was using the airline's app for getting past tsa and for boarding. I wonder if they'll continue to let you do that.
nope, all being phased out over the next 3years.

The next flight I take is #777 for heaven. Boarding soon :rapture:
 
There's something about facial recognition that makes me want to avoid it. I guess I've watched too many movies where they use facial recognition to track individuals...
That was the point Fox news was making.

Too many security data breaches. Facial data points that are behind the AI algorithm to pinpoint your face are a series of data points that match "you". And can just as easily be recreated at will by any govt or business with the will to do so regardless of the rules.
 
This is yet another area where AI is taking over a human job- gate agent, checking tickets. Possibly this will lead to an elimination or speeding up of the TSA screening process as the trusted traveller program expands and those who have a ban on travel (even mistakenly as we see in the news occasionally) will also expand.

Some people get to travel freely

others don't.

Welcome to the Beast system getting people conditioned to that idea.

More and more I'm thinking that Elon Musk and DOGE (good stuff but....) are taking out jobs (again, no problem there) and replacing them with better more efficient AI systems- it is after all about efficiency, not just cost cutting.

And Elon is invested heavily into bringing AI into every day life. I love my robot vacuum, he's busy as I type this, vacuuming my bedroom. Go little robot, do your stuff!

Those new factories on American soil that Trump is working hard to establish (very good idea) will likely be staffed by robots and machines in place of humans- it reduces costs, speeds up the process and reduces errors- already in place in automotive factories.

This process towards AI and automation (drone warfare, robot vacuums, robot assembly lines) eliminate human error, (introducing computer glitches even more scary) - it's all going forward now at light speed under Musk and Trump and the team.

It will bypass the problem of union wages, workers whose unions protect them from being fired in spite of problems. - that after all was a big reason for the manufacturers to go offshore, to places where workers are paid a lot less and who can be fired instantly without a problem if they don't stay up to standards.

This bypasses humans and returns the factory to America, but with robot labour instead of humans. A few humans will be required to run the factory, but not as many jobs for factory line workers that there were in the olden days before offshoring all those jobs.

For the disabled the brain chips (another Elon project) will make humanity more efficient. Maybe they'll have jobs supervising the robots. There will still be some humans required. Just not as many as there were during the Industrial Revolution.

As another thread this morning points out, predictive programming can even catch people before they commit a crime. Preventing crime.

Brave New World.
 
I’m looking forward to all of the conveniences new technology will bring, because I know we’re out of here before it’s as bad as the Tribulation. Might as well enjoy the upgrades and all of the lessened hassles lol

I’m praying for a robot cleaner and cook :pray:

Yeah, I want a robot that does all of the house cleaning chores. I still want to do the cooking.

My robot vacuum has his moments- I sure wouldn't like to be without him or his big sister my dishwasher. That front load washer with the bells and whistles that George gave me one Valentine's day when the builder model that the apt condo came with gave up in a puff of smoke. It's a red flake metallic paint job and she's gorgeous. She and the dryer also cost 2K less because few people wanted that snazzy red. I did.

I loved them and they have pride of place right in my front entry. I had to get G to take the door off the alcove for the W&D because they are too big, and jut out a bit. All the better to greet my guests as they enter my apartment. Shiny red washer and dryer with chrome accents.

Still the best reminder of that Valentines day with George making my heart go pitter pat the way he did! No bouquet of roses ever touched me like the top of the line W&D in red flake metallic with chrome accents.

I think (it's been quite a few years now) they would have cost 7K instead of 5K in Canada at Sears where we got them. Getting 2K off just was icing on the cake. George nailed it that day.

Oooh that red Washer and Dryer is gorgeous. What a sweet gift from George!

Biometrics is already in use in various grocery stores and government buildings. It's even being used in healthcare.

A while back I had a doctor's appointment with a doctor I had been seeing for years and all of a sudden they wanted to take a photograph of my face with a camera connected to their computer, and I asked why did they need a photograph and I was told it was to prove who I was in their records. They had my ID on file.
Of course medical records are now on computers. My state ID wasn't good enough anymore that they already had.
I said "but you know who I am, I've been coming here for years".
After that when I had appointments and saw the doctor's laptop computer, there's I was, my face on the computer.
It's facial recognition.

Ultimately the facial recognition will be connected to a global block chain so that the facial recognition will be under one system.
Sounds a lot like something out of Revelation 13.

The only thing that stopped them was the sheer size of computing required to track everyone. It's here.

Last August I posted a thread on this forum about facial recognition biometrics being implemented in NFL stadiums. They said that it was for the employees, but no doubt from there it would expand to the public in the stadiums.

I believe Whole Foods grocery chains now have facial recognition.
Food for Less, which is Kroger also uses it.

The retail stores you probably shop at that use facial-recognition technology​


Retail stores across the country are using facial recognition systems in their stores, leading to pushback by groups who say the technology is an invasion of privacy, Axios reported on Monday.

According to the advocacy campaign's website, Macy's, Apple, Lowe's, Albertsons, Ace Hardware, and H-E-B grocery are six retailers that use the technology.

Walmart, Kroger, Home Depot, Target, Costco, CVS, Dollar Tree, and Verizon told Fight for the Future that they do not use facial recognition and do not plan on using it in the future.

Kroger said they didn't plan on using facial recognition yet they do.

Kroger introduces facial recognition in stores​

Kroger has partnered with Microsoft to install facial-recognition technology in stores to identify individual customers, which could allow individual shoppers to see prices calibrated specifically for them. The next shopper might pay a different amount based on their profile.
