So time to mask up and hide your face in public or lawyer up and sue for harassment and wrongful detainment.
Waitll someone starts committing crimes with a mask of the police chief and other police force members.

Ohh, good idea. During the pandemic there was a company that could put your face on a mask, they may still, you submit a face pic and they print the appropriate portion on the mask
The obvious solution is to commit more than the average number of crimes of your fellow citizens.
Or, more specifically, more crimes than the average of your cohort of facial recognition doppelgangers.
That way, when the AI brings you to justice, it's likely to be justice for a lesser crimes than the ones you already got away with.

There's a good chance that this happened in part because they still haven't ironed out the racial bias in the training data sets for these systems—Mr. Parks appears to be dark-skinned.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Police in Peel and York regions, near Toronto, announced in late May they were jointly implementing Idemia's technology, which they will use to compare existing mugshots with crime scene images of suspects and persons of interest.
The photo had come from a fake Tennessee driver's licence the suspect provided to officers at the scene of the theft, according to a police report submitted as a court exhibit in the civil case.
Two days later, an investigator emailed a Woodbridge detective a PDF file containing a "good possible hit on facial recognition," according to court exhibits reviewed by CBC News.
"Idemia Face Expert will be used to aid human decision-making, not replace it," Peel Regional Police Deputy Chief Nick Milinovich said in a video posted online.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) earlier this year filed a court brief in support of Parks, stating "officers unreasonably relied on a shaky lead from fundamentally unreliable technology."
In slides prepared for a 2018 presentation titled "Face Recognition Evaluation @ Idemia," a representative wrote the company's algorithm has the "same [false positive identification rate] for Black or white subjects, male or female."
