So like Lex Luthor is a super smart and rich businessman. Why doesn't he use facial recognition to figure out Superman's identity? Or would the Kryptonian psychic barrier around him confound tech like that?
CCTV superman's greatest weakness?
He changes his face with super muscle control
Lex can easily figure out who Superman is, the issue is that his ego cannot allow him to believe that his greatest rival is just some mild-mannered reporter from Kansas.
Because it would be boring as hell if Lex Luthor figured out Clark's identity 30+ years ago.
Weren't you fired Susan?
w-who's susan
Her name was Amanda
>facial recognition
Yeah, easy. Just pull up that nonexistent database with the current face and biographical info of every living person on the planet.
I mean Superman is based in Metropolis and Lex Luthor is pretty fucking rich. Not really implausible at all
>Nonexistent
China has one, and they've been tested in America.
lol people shitting on something as impossible when Luthor did it decades ago
Absolutely no one has a database with every living person's face and biographical information.
oh fuck I didn't know he actually did it thanks for the sauce user
He's figured it out a couple of times before. And before that he completely refused to believe it as shown here .
It was wrong when they did it then too.
WRONG!
based WRONG!poster
Comic books are often wrong when discussing technology or physics
>lol people shitting on something as impossible when Luthor did it decades ago
You know they didn't identify Clark from a database of every human being on the planet, right? That "Clark Kent is Superman" conclusion is something the machine calculated in response to being tasked with figuring out the connection between Superman and Clark Kent. See:
So a machine didn't need every face in the world, just two? And you're using this as your arguement?
>So a machine didn't need every face in the world, just two?
What? How is a machine being given the right answer to begin with and recognizing that it was given the right answer more impressive than a machine finding the one right answer out of billions of possibilities?
Some chink just used face recognition to correlate porn Stars with social media profiles in order to identify if someone you know has appeared in a porn movie.
Pretty sure Lex could do something similar. All news reporters nowadays have social media.
>Some chink just used face recognition to correlate porn Stars with social media profiles in order to identify if someone you know has appeared in a porn movie.
>Some chink just used face recognition to correlate porn Stars with social media profiles in order to identify if someone you know has appeared in a porn movie.
Obviously there exist pictures of porn stars. That's not the same as having a database with biographically annotated pictures of every person on the planet.
