Is there actual evidence of this, like anywhere?

Facial recognition on a small corpus of known faces (what everyone experiences on Facebook, their phones, etc) is an easy problem.

Walmart picking up a face walking into a store and matching it against 30 million possibilities is going to return so many false positive matches it’s going to be completely useless.
