in a nutshell: New Stanford study shows that a facial recognition algorithm can correctly determine whether people are straight or gay with up to 91% accuracy when using multiple images. this has NOT yet been peer reviewed, FWIW.
what does this mean? gay people have a certain look to them that can be detected by a computer program. 91% for men and 83% for women. there are fears by the LGBTQ+ community that this could be used to discriminate.
vin armani, in the broadcast, believes that if the computer can figure out who is and who is not gay, that there is a genetic component.
