Slide 2- Connecting knowledge and technology through evidence

A compelling real-world example that connects knowledge, technology, and the TOK concept of evidence is the development and use of AI-driven facial recognition technology. This technology has seen widespread application in various fields such as security, law enforcement, and even personal device access. Its rapid development and implementation raise important questions about the nature of evidence, the reliability of technology-generated knowledge, and ethical considerations.

Example: AI-Driven Facial Recognition Technology
Background: Facial recognition technology uses artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to identify individuals based on facial features. While it offers significant benefits in security and convenience, it also presents challenges regarding accuracy, bias, and privacy.
