I went through US customs recently with my family. We had to stand in front of a camera for a few seconds, it matched our face to a passport in their database, they confirmed our name in the database with us, and we went on through. We don't fly international much, but they managed to connect our faces to all our passport info without us ever having to take our passport out of our bags. Super convenient, but also super scary.
I have an european passport and the experience of exiting the EU is surreal, but much better than talking with a french customs officer lol And the machines even worked with non-EU passports! Works for chilean passports too.
A significant increase in convenience results in a significant decrease in security. It's convenient to you but also convenient to threat actors. Nothing is 100% secure after all
It is worth pointing out that going through all the trouble of avoiding being recognized by cameras is pointless if you're just going to carry your smartphone tracking device with you everywhere. Especially in areas with 5G coverage where your smartphone can already be tracked with quite a high degree of precision.
This clothing is awesome, I'll give you that, but I can't help thinking that all this is going to do is lead the surveillance technology developers into creating new ways to track us ...
Another issue with the garments that Matt forgot to mention is that, well, what about the place you work? Plenty of those have dress codes that don't allow clothing that looks like that, so even if you happened to have something that was somehow %100 effective it wouldn't matter anyway. There is another thing to consider, though. A lot of these cameras that were counted have no AI or facial recognition technology, and even a number of the ones that do are on their own closed system. So on one hand, the clothing is even less helpful than you'd think considering when you're even able to wear it, but on the other hand a ton of these cameras are nowhere near as concerning as you'd assume. Finally, there's the fact that, to any human watching the footage, wearing clothing like that tends to make you stand out.
Once again, the classic cloak with a deep cowel comes out on top. Use a design that breaks up your shape like stripes, the deep cowel means that your face can only be seen from the front and only if they get past the shadow, and security cameras tend not to have a flash, so your face should stay nice and concealed.
There are many easy ways to hide your identity from cameras, but all of them make you look extremely suspicious to the humans watching you walk around in a ski mask in 80 degree weather. At the end of the day, there's no reason to go to such efforts to conceal your identity when you're just going about your normal boring life.
I actually worked for that company that created the scarf that Paris Hilton wore. The scarves only really work with camera flashes, but due to advancements in low light tech, most phones today can still capture your face, never mind cctv cameras. I've actually still got one of the hoodies they released a few years back. This is probably the last place I expected to see ISHU referenced lol
We put tape over all of the built-in cameras on our electronics at home. Though, there is the rare occasion when we don't speak of certain topics anywhere near them. 🙊
I feel like this really needs to be something that we address in the government rather than trying to avoid it with clothes. It should not be legal for companies to track and associate that level of personal data.
I wonder if this kind of clothing would pop up in the next action movie where the guy being tracked around the world utilizes some of this AI tricking fashion to evade capture? or worse it shows up in real world crime like the bank robbery example.
Something I see pretty often are anti photography T-shirts with QR codes on them. These codes then will redirect the device that is taking the photo one way or another, but this does not work for your standard canon camera.
Heres a style theory ive personally been curious about: are those shampoo bodywash combos (those 2-in-1 and 3-in-1 things) really more effective than the seperate shampoos and body wash?
I literally just commented on how a shirt that tries to make ai think you're someone else or a whole as crowd that would get your real face thrown out as junk data would have a real shot at practicality
I remember a sort of clear plastic mask that broke up the shape of the face when observed on the outside while inside allowed you to have your whole fov albeit slightly distorted
I love Matt, pat retconning the lore of his own life by telling us that he got that jacket as a gift for crossing a mile stone, even though I specifically remember him designing that jacket as a theorywear merch item for that specific purpose, and it bombing horribly, but that’s just a theory
This is also a matter of how creepy you are comfortable with looking. You can always create a pattern that is a fractal of somewhat blurry and rotated human faces or randomly placed eyes, noses and mouths, made of smaller burry and rotated human faces (or face parts), but you will look like someone who's a bit too much into body horror. And you can train the AI to detect or generate pretty much anything, even at home, so it wouldn't stay effective for long. In the end you will be a comparable master of camouflage to a dude standing in a lake with a wooden duck attached to his head.
Yeah. In the end, as long as a human can tell who you are, a sufficiently smart AI can too. An even smarter AI could be even better at identifying you than humans.
15:30 Glad you mentioned this MatPat, because as someone who uses neural networks as a profession (though admittedly I deal with words more than images), this was the immediate problem I saw. They're making all these claims about obscuring your face, but any facial recognition software that doesn't care about dogs or whatever is gonna ignore those sweaters and just identify the human faces with full precision and accuracy. Further, even if it WAS a facial recognition network, they'd only be fooling that one specific model. Even a slightly different model might be completely unaffected. I'm all for research continuing though - existing in public is dramatically more invasive than it used to be even just 20 years ago.
I deal with computer vision in my line of work, Mat Pat was right for an arguably wrong reason. YOLO itself isnt the problem, its the dataset it was trained on. YOLO is just a really popular object detection framework, what matter is the dataset that it was trained on. The company making dog shirts to fool an AI trained on the COCO dataset (I would assume) do nothing to an AI trained specifically on human images, it has no idea what a dog even is.
also remember that some of the AI’s may be working off more than just your face. so anti-ai clothes will just become another fairly unique datapoint to use to identify you.
12:42 a solution to these things is making two neural networks work in concert One separates the face of any human from their clothing (any clothing like experimenting with the capable clothing and reading up on how they did it) Then they pass those faces through the facial recognition
3:51 Ah yes, there's nothing like sticking it to the man and deliberately messing up their plans as a method to get them to not notice you. I often find the more painful a thorn I am in someone's side the more they ignore me. And that's not saying sticking it to the man is necessarially bad, just if your desired outcome is to be more unnoiticeable it seems to me like you're going about it in completely the wrong way.
If they are looking for you specifically, tattoos will make you even more recognizable. And even if they are not, tattoos are way harder to update than clothes when the AI is improved to see past them.
MatPat should make his own lore where all 4 channels (film, style, food and game) interact with each other and have a problem that is kind of like the shorts war or if they go against youtube or something like that and the fans have to try to find evidence, links and unlisted videos to try to solve his lore.
Alternate hypothesis: wear clothing full of people's faces on it (I was expecting you to consider that after you showed the license plate jacket) 🤔 I guess that's kinda what the sweater with eyes on it (at 11:14) is doing.
So, crime shows (film theory follow up?) have had some camera beating tricks. Including one that had an light (2 led? from 2 low angles) shine on the criminals face rendering it unseeable to the cameras
@@jayden_the_skeleton8729 yes that will still work lol. Even masks + sunglasses will make it basically impossible to tell you apart from someone with similar proportions.
@@XerosOfficial that's not true. Modern systems can recognize the face with complex algorithm and those aren't easily confused by medical masks or beard or glasses

Plus, one thing that can help a bit (not a ton, obvs, cause it’s cameras, a ton of em at that), is wearing a mask. The cameras can’t take measurements of your face if it can’t see the other half of your face. It’s not perfect, but it can help, if you’re super worried about it.
see, in terms of security camera's, i'm rarely seen cause as someone in home schooling that doesnt require zoom, i leave the house to pretty much only do what i WANT to do, or Need to do myself, like docotrs, but other than doctors i only leave my house like once a month, maybe twice normally
This whole video all I was thinking about was criminals abusing this. Like if the average citizen can hide their identity in a sense, then so can a criminal who happened to watch this video
A Shirt that can protec your identity 👀 Throw in some killer shoes, tentacle limbs, face mask & you're set to go out (Kekw) Tech is getting advanced, even some clothings are starting to follow along. Nothing like some cool illusions to get away from danger. This must've been fun to dive into, possible merch ideas? Danke for sharing the interesting findings, Hope everyone is doing well, Keep It Up Bro 👔 😎 👊
I think sometimes it comes down more to lack of trust for the average, non-celebrity. For example, how accurate are these facial scanners in high traffic areas? If there's a chance these systems could misidentify someone else as me, do we have enough trust in the human authorities to dig a little deeper and verify that it wasn't actually me, but someone who looked enough like me to ping in the system? For a lot of ppl, the answer is no. And if that mistake happens during a crime investigation, for example, the stakes are a lot higher than just ad companies tracking your shopping habits. Idk the odds of that happening, but I can't shame someone for having that concern. It is newish tech, after all.
The scarf only works in low light with a flash. Like street signs, it can easily be seen in photos and videos. These things only cause glare under direct light.
One that I'd love to see tested is just a standard baseball cap that has an array of infrared LEDs pointed at your face (though these would need to be specifically pointed _away_ from your eyes, so hard to say how effective you could make it while keeping it safe [given a set of non-corrective lenses would fix that pretty quickly]).
do a style theory episode on what type of armor will give you the best protection (weather it be samurai, knights or Viking armor) I want a episode about armor
it is pretty likely that most of those systems use a YOLO style algo before it starts looking to compare faces. A lot of compute power in image detection, it's smart to filter non human entities or artifacts before comparing an object to a recognition database like facial recognition.
i know im late but i have a mini theory about the "your soap is dirty"i think its because your towel is attacting so much bacteria because its always moist so its just putting back the bacteria you wiped off
Let's say you design A.I meant to make anti-A.I clothes, and they make clothes that be all systems. A.I developers will just add these new clothes to their training data, so these anti-A.I clothes only last as long as the newest updates (every week). You'll need a fabric that can change its color and patterns to stay up to date on anti-A.I. trends.
not only would that happen its actually a very well understood part of the ai training process and is applied in two seperate ways. first data augmentation where you intentiall mess with pattern, colors directions, add noise etc to force the ai to learn more. second adverasial networks are very popular for training models. you basically traintwo models one to make a choice and the other intended to trick the first by making up data
You can have these cameras do all this recognition and watching, but I have learned this year it doesn’t matter. At least in the states here in Texas. The street cameras we see DONT RECORD AND STORE ANYTHING!! Something very bad happened in my life and I found out that these cameras only put out a live feed and NO one records them or stores them.
I wonder now if u could cover car license plates in a similar pattern as the road signs with highly reflective glass particles so fine or so rough that they would block any speed cameras 🤔
I'm actually doing an Intelligence Systems course this semester, so it's interesting to see how I can connect some of these things together. I think a big issue with supposedly anti-AI-wear, which you briefly mention, is that if the AI can't register you because of what you are wearing, then the issue is most likely that the AI misunderstood the context. It doesn't know what a human is it just knows this arrangement of things can be classified as such, some of those 'things' being typical clothing. This weird clothing is just not what its been trained on so it cant grasp it, in a sense. But that's very easily corrected and trained.
Hi Matpat even though you wont see this I just wanted to say your videos are amazing and when I am sad I watch your videos and they make me smile thank you for making me happy when life couldn't

i know im late but i have a mini theory about the "your soap is dirty"i think its because your towel is attacting so much bacteria because its always moist so its just putting back the bacteria you wiped off
0:58 imagine leaving the house
now do a film theory video about one of the ironically, many movie adaptations of the book "1984"
Matpat came with yet again ANOTHER SLAY✨‼️🔥💅🏻
Incogni: keeps *info safe*
hacker:hacks *incogni*
Incogni:what the fu-
Let's say you design A.I meant to make anti-A.I clothes, and they make clothes that be all systems. A.I developers will just add these new clothes to their training data, so these anti-A.I clothes only last as long as the newest updates (every week). You'll need a fabric that can change its color and patterns to stay up to date on anti-A.I. trends.
not only would that happen its actually a very well understood part of the ai training process and is applied in two seperate ways.
first data augmentation where you intentiall mess with pattern, colors directions, add noise etc to force the ai to learn more.
second adverasial networks are very popular for training models. you basically traintwo models one to make a choice and the other intended to trick the first by making up data
Just dress up as your favorite character.
You can have these cameras do all this recognition and watching, but I have learned this year it doesn’t matter. At least in the states here in Texas. The street cameras we see DONT RECORD AND STORE ANYTHING!! Something very bad happened in my life and I found out that these cameras only put out a live feed and NO one records them or stores them.
6:37 BatMan could of fought in WW2
2022: Dehumanizing is the worst
2023: I want to be not recognized as a person so AI wont steal my information.
What a turn of events.
I wonder now if u could cover car license plates in a similar pattern as the road signs with highly reflective glass particles so fine or so rough that they would block any speed cameras 🤔
that would be illegal
At 5:50 , it reads "FGQ 5080" as "FGQ 5D8D." Did all the extra data make it mess up, or does it make that error normally?
you can get glasses frames which blind the camera from your face
Can you do game,film,food,and style theorist theory’s?
Identity theft is a serious crime
There's a video of a guy putting infrared bulbs from TV remotes on sunglasses to prevent cameras from seeing his face. It worked extremely well
Can u link it please
15:56 lol so the clothes would make you invisible to an AI like Tesla’s autopilot. Seems kinda dangerous actually
Maybe it wouldn't quite fit, but I'm surprised digital camo didn't come up considering its actual applications in the military.
Me watching this while in the bathroom 0:12
I'm actually doing an Intelligence Systems course this semester, so it's interesting to see how I can connect some of these things together.
I think a big issue with supposedly anti-AI-wear, which you briefly mention, is that if the AI can't register you because of what you are wearing, then the issue is most likely that the AI misunderstood the context.
It doesn't know what a human is it just knows this arrangement of things can be classified as such, some of those 'things' being typical clothing. This weird clothing is just not what its been trained on so it cant grasp it, in a sense.
But that's very easily corrected and trained.
MatPat in his stalker era🔥️🔥️🔥
I’ve had flash jackets, shoes and hats for 6 years now. Love them.
16:59 took me out. 😵💫😵💫😵💫
I _do_ have control over my content feed! Because I don't use one! I just check all of my subscriptions that have a video uploaded every day!
Aaand TLDR, AI is terrifying...
POV: u make the hardest n beat trick by accident but ur wearing these jackets
1:15 hahah joke on you I don’t go outside😤😁😃😀🙂😕🙁☹️😨
Hi Matpat even though you wont see this I just wanted to say your videos are amazing and when I am sad I watch your videos and they make me smile
thank you for making me happy when life couldn't
