yes, I've worked on face recognition databases with 150m and 40m faces for banking and safety.

The models are not perfect. Humans should still be in the loop to verify, especially when the consequences of being wrong really suck for the user: losing access to their bank account, getting fired from their job.

If you're referring to algorithms like phash (Where they are using the same core image, but just add a filter), they wont work well, because everyone's ID card mostly looks the same. There will be too many FPs.
