"Say you do a peace sign then a fist to the camera. It follows your hand movements. And medical research has shown based on your hand movement, it can identify your age.

This appears to be a gross distortion of a paper from AI company Haut.AI, who market an “AI skincare solution” to the beauty industry. The paper claimed to predict ages from hands and faces of Indian women. [Haut.AI; Wiley]"

Never change, Australia.

Why don’t they just hire a wizard to cast an anti-tiktok spell over all of Australia instead? It would be just as workable and I know a guy who swears he can do it for cheaper than whatever server costs they’re gonna try and push.

What I hate about all these new AI verification services is that I wouldn’t even be surprised if they are using verification data and pictures to train their own AI models. Wasn’t there a video on Lemmy somewhere the other day where it showed the AI company Discord was using? They went to their website and it was full of AI generated images and I think even text. I wonder where they got all that training data from… 🤔

Even if this was 100% accurate, which it obviously can’t be, what’s stopping someone who’s under 16 from just using someone else’s hand? Seems little better than the classic verification method of entering your birth date.

The elderly hand market is about to see a steep increase in purchases. What about all the elderly who will loose their hands, we all saw how bad it was when people were stealing catalytic converters. 😓

/s since a chunk of users can’t read sarcasm lol.
