Finding the Vulnerable with Biometrics, Artificial Intelligence: Atlanta's Trust Stamp to aid in locating those lost to human trafficking - Swanson Reed - Specialist R&D Tax Advisors

Artificial intelligence may put an end to a long-running industry: human trafficking. The average age a minor enters the sex trade in the U.S. is 12 to 14 years old–many of the victims being runaway girls who were sexually abused. Thankfully, Attorney Generals in the U.S. and Mexico are planning to implement a new system that will help to locate victims of human trafficking. Trust Stamp, an Atlanta-based startup, will be providing the'meat and potatoes' of the life-saving technology. According to the company website, "[Trust Stamp] creates proprietary artificial intelligence solutions; researching and leveraging facial biometric science and wide-scale data mining to deliver insightful identity & trust predictions while identifying and defending against fraudulent identity attacks."
