Does anyone know of any data about the racial bias of human police officers vs. facial recognition software?

That is, I am not sure if it makes sense to ban the software if it is less biased than the human. But it might make sense to ban it if it is more biased.

There are loads of people of color who have been falsely imprisoned for looking like someone in a grainy security camera footage well before facial recognition technology was widespread.
