recognize faces you have to train our corpus in the corpus is made up of lots of the images of people and you for whatever reason the images are mainly copulation people then you will be better at recognizing them some of the minorities if they weren't well represented in the training so i think that's the technical side of it but if you just grabbing any images that you find and many of them will be dark you know absolute people who have darker skin tones may just do just may be harder to see it should be understood that visual recognition is not a matter of taking a photograph and sort of comparing it to another photograph and saying no this one looks like that and that's what that's what is human we do know what a computer dollars is though the measures points well back in may the
