Is that different from somebody getting arrested based on mistaken eyewitness.

The difference is that is a known problem, but with ML, a large fraction of the population thinks it's infallible. Worse, its reported confidence for an individual face may be grossly overstated, since that is based on all the data it was trained on, rather than the particular subset you may be dealing with.

large fraction of the population and ML marketing both believe that.

I still think it insane. We have falling crime rates and we still arm ourselves as fast as we can. Humanity could live without face recognition and we wouldn't even suffer any penalties. Nope, people need to sell their evidently shitty ML work.
