‘Most disturbing AI site on internet’ can find every picture of you that exists

Monitoring Desk

NEW YORK: PimEyes is a reverse-image search site that uses facial recognition technology to match every photo of a person that’s ever been posted to the internet.

After someone uploads a photo of the person they want to find, Pimeyes will scour the internet to match that person’s face to others.

Although it’s not completely perfect, it’s very accurate in finding the person you’re looking for – or lookalikes.

“Using the latest technologies, artificial intelligence and machine learning, we help you find your pictures on the Internet and defend yourself from scammers, identity thieves, or people who use your image illegally,” PimEyes says.

Should a user come across their photo and want to erase it, they can set up PimEyes alerts that will notify them when their photo is uploaded somewhere on the internet.

Then working with a professional service, PimEyes will scrub the image from the source.

Despite its good intentions, the technology has also become controversial as some believe it can be used for stalking.

PimEyes states in its terms of service that “if data security unit reveals abuse of service, such as stalking, violation of children’s privacy rights, account will be banned permanently without right to refund.
