Amazon Ring rolls out AI facial recognition
šØĀ Our ReportĀ
Amazonās Ring is rolling out āFamiliar Faces,ā an AI-powered facial recognition feature for its video doorbells across the United States. The tool allows users to build a catalog of up to 50 faces for personalized alerts, and it drew immediate criticism from privacy advocates, given Ringās history of security failures and law enforcement partnerships.
š Key Points
The āFamiliar Facesā feature lets users create a private library of faces, allowing the system to send custom notifications like āMom at Front Doorā instead of a generic alert that a person was detected.
Privacy groups like the EFF and U.S. Senator Ed Markey have opposed the feature, citing Ringās previous $5.8M FTC fine for lax security and its history of sharing footage with police departments.
Due to existing biometric privacy laws, the feature will not launch in Illinois, Texas, or Portland, Oregon. Amazon states that the collected facial data is encrypted and is not used to train its AI models.
šĀ RelevanceĀ
This rollout places a powerful surveillance tool directly into consumer hands, intensifying the debate over data privacy and corporate responsibility. For companies developing consumer AI, this is a case study in reputational risk. Deploying features that use sensitive biometric data, especially without fully resolving past security concerns, can provoke immediate regulatory backlash and erode public trust.

Case Study
How AI cut data reporting time from weeks to seconds
Burger King France, a chain with nearly 600 restaurants, struggled to give teams quick usage to reliable operational and data.
The issue came from fragmented systems and manual reporting, which slowed insights and shortened agility across marketing, finance, and restaurant operations.
Partnering with Artefact, Burger King introduced REBEKA, a generative AI chatbot that converts natural-language questions into SQL queries for data retrieval.
Teams get answers in seconds instead of weeks, improving decision speed, boosting productivity, and strengthening the companyās data-driven culture.
