What is Reverse Face Search?

A technology that takes a photo of a face as input and searches the internet for other images of the same person. Unlike traditional reverse image search (which matches pixels), reverse face search uses AI facial recognition to match the unique geometry of a face — finding the same person even in completely different photos.
