Computer systems and methods are provided for training a machine learning system to determine an authentication decision and deleting personal data from the machine learning system in a way that cancels any results of the training based on that personal data. A deletion request is received from a user device, the deletion request designating a first image. In response, a server creates an inverse attribute for the first image, the inverse attribute contradicting an initial attribute that was associated with the first image when the first image was initially received. The server updates a machine learning system based on the first image and the inverse attribute. Subsequent to updating the machine learning model, the server deletes the first image from data storage of the machine learning system.
