And you can keep hand waving away the fact that lower precision because of less light is not the primary cause of racial bias in facial recognition systems - it’s the fact that the datasets used for training are racially biased.

Yes, it is. The idea that giant corporations “aren’t trying” is laughable, and it’s a literal guarantee that massively lower quality, noisier inputs will result in a lower quality model with lower quality outputs.

Less photons hitting the sensors matters. A lot.
