Row Over Device That Identifies "Gay Faces":
Row Over Device That Identifies "Gay Faces":
A facial recognition experiment that claims to be able to distinguish between gay and heterosexual people has sparked a row between its creators and two leading LGBT rights groups.
http://malaysiandigest.com/world/697152-row-over-ai-that-identifies-gay-faces.html
[Why would they pick a minority group for an experiment like this? Are they looking for a facial recognition system to identify gays when workers are being hired? Perhaps to arrest them and put them in jail? Or worse? There is something not right about all this....don't you think?]

I'm not understanding this. How can it be called valid unless the results are 100 percent?

Silly program because that is correlating with hormone level superficial images, and I know many people, myself included, who are reversed of their conclusions.

Valid studies aren't 100% they always have failures as many of the clients have health issues that come up during the study and whether it is related or not the study must include them.
Also this shouldn't be considered a study by Stanford University but the researchers, all across this country researchers are hired by universities with some very funky views as we have seen in climatology and other subjects. They are funded as any scientist is, funky or not, funky might come up with something positive for human kind, although the waste of many of these studies come to nothing and I would imagine billions have been wasted.
