Iran regime unleashes AI for 'maximizing suppression in a wholesale manner,' expert says
Fox News
One expert discussed Iran's rollout of facial technology to catch women driving with their headscarves worn in an inappropriate way or not at all, handing out automatic fines.
"The regime in Iran is using surveillance technology to identify ‘transgressors,’" Daftari said. "This includes camera systems on the streets to identify women not wearing hijab, facial recognition technology to identify protesters and others, and AI in maximizing suppression in a wholesale manner." Peter Aitken is a Fox News Digital reporter with a focus on national and global news.
Iran has experienced its most significant protests and anti-government demonstrations in decades following the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, who allegedly breached the country’s hijab (headscarf) laws.
