Clearview AI Is Testing an AI Tool That Would Let Cops Unearth Your Life Online

Clearview artificial intelligence (AI) is testing a prototype tool called InquiryIQ that uses a language model from xAI to aggregate publicly available information about individuals identified through Clearview's facial recognition platform. The tool is designed to surface associates, social media accounts, and other details to law enforcement users.

Why it matters: Police departments using Clearview could gain expansive dossiers on subjects and associates from disparate online sources, raising civil liberties and privacy concerns for individuals subjected to this surveillance, and forcing your organization to assess risks if law enforcement requests data about your users or employees.
