This is awkward. It appears that HP's new webcams, which have facial-tracking software, can't recognize black faces, as evidenced in the above video. HP has responded:

We are working with our partners to learn more. The technology we use is built on standard algorithms that measure the difference in intensity of contrast between the eyes and the upper cheek and nose. We believe that the camera might have difficulty "seeing" contrast in conditions where there is insufficient foreground lighting.

software was programmed and tested by white nerds. not racism so much as living in a bubble.

 

No it is racism, HP made the produce to not work with black people, it's a feature.

Its not racism, it just appears that way to the uninformed. The reality is this software was funded by Yakuza bosses who wanted their ninjas to pass without detection, and as a side effect black people are also able to do the same. This brings forth an exciting possibility, black ninjas.

You know what I hate about that poster other than the "racial connotations"? How shit it is. It's not even clever in any way, it's just garbage.

 

Plus, they'd only sprint directly into each other if they did start running.
