《金融時報》、《洛杉磯時報》、《Wired》年度最佳書籍 榮獲《Inc.》Non-Obvious獎 入圍《金融時報》、施羅德年度商業書、2024英國皇家學會科學圖書獎決選 人臉辨識技術 對跟蹤者來說是個夢想， 對自由主義者而言則是個噩夢。 在中國，不被看見是特權的象徵！ 身在這個高度透明的新世界中， 你我都將無處藏身！ 然而 人臉辨識技術是福音還是禍端？！ 《紐約時報》科技記者卡希米爾‧希爾，在接到一封有關名為Clearview AI的神祕應用程式線報時持懷疑態度，該軟體聲稱可憑一張人臉照片，即可在幾秒內顯示一個人網路生活的所有細節：他們的姓名、社群媒體資訊、朋友和家庭成員、住家地址，以及他們可能不知道存在的照片，而且準確率高達98.6%！如果這份聲稱內容都是真的，那這將是終極監控工具，並為從跟蹤到極權國家控制開啟大門。 但，它是真的嗎？ 本書作者希爾追蹤Clearview AI的崛起，這家公司由澳洲電腦工程師尊室歡和前紐約市長朱利安尼顧問史華茲掌舵，其龐大的人臉資料庫來自網路。該公司發展過程得到幾位爭議人物的支援，包括保守派挑釁者查爾斯‧強森和川普的支持者彼得‧提爾—他們都迫不及待地想將這一改變世界的技術推向公眾。反觀，網路巨頭谷歌和臉書則認為，辨識陌生人的工具太過激進而不予釋出，Clearview則繼續前進，不斷向私人投資者、向企業推銷該應用軟體，並提供給世界各地的數千個執法機構作為辦案使用。 人臉辨識技術在幾十年間悄然成長為強大的力量。在美國，卻也因為警方使用這項技術不慎，已經造成多起錯誤逮捕事件。如果不加以監管，它可能會像在中國和俄羅斯一樣，達到可怕的反烏托邦程度—社會充滿恐懼、監控與剝削，個人的自由和尊嚴受到嚴重威脅。 本書是一個引人深思的真實故事，Clearview AI開發出的人臉辨識工具在缺乏謹慎和政府監管情況下的可怕影響，讓我們不禁反思：你是要「安全還是隱私權？」 【本書特色】 1.人臉辨識技術的演進與廣泛應用 深入探討人臉辨識技術從實驗室研究到公眾生活中的普及過程。透過案例，如Clearview AI及FindFace等企業，揭示技術如何迅速發展並應用於安全、商業和監控等領域。 2.隱私與匿名的終結 人臉辨識技術的普及正威脅人們的基本隱私權，特別是公共空間中的匿名權，並剖析科技企業如何利用人臉辨識在廣告、安防等領域加強對人們行為的監控。 3.未來
