AI can’t even get facial identification correct. It might claim to be able to identify people by online presence, but I wouldn’t doubt if it guesses incorrectly most of the time.
Based on the research they had a 60 something % accuracy. But the test data was for HackerNews accounts which linked to LinkedIn. I would guess that anyone linking their anonymous account to their LinkedIn profile isn't really trying to hide themselves.
