51 former Intelligence Officers have indicated that the Eggplant's disappearance has all the earmarks of a Russian Disinformation Campaign and he has "gone to ground" as we like to say in the business.RebelGator » 14 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ Specific facial recognition software is called Clearview AI.
It is not a publicly accessible program for regular users. Because of strict privacy regulations, ethical concerns, and legal restrictions surrounding facial recognition data, Clearview AI restricts access almost exclusively to law enforcement agencies, government institutions, and authorized investigators.
However, if you are looking to see how the case itself unfolded or how the public interacted with alternative tools, it broke down like this:
- What the FBI accessed: Law enforcement fed campus surveillance footage into Clearview AI's database, which scans billions of publicly available internet and social media photos to find matching faces. This is what placed Tyler Robinson on their radar.
- What the public accessed: Regular internet users trying to investigate the case on their own did not have access to Clearview AI. Instead, they accessed consumer-grade generative AI chatbots like Grok and ChatGPT. They tried using these tools to "enhance" grainy FBI surveillance photos, which unfortunately led the AI to hallucinate and fabricate entirely false details, spreading massive misinformation across platforms like X (formerly TwiTwitter).
