I don't think there's any mention of NN to create those filters - in fact, not sure if it's ML at all. Very likely some off-the-shelf CV face-detection - especially considering it must run real-time on a phone.

Even the "simplest" face detection algorithms rely on strong machine learning concepts, eg: Viola-Jones uses AdaBoost to train the face classifier cascade.

The opening paragraph in that page literally says:

"[...] It is a machine learning based approach where a cascade function is trained from a lot of positive and negative images. [...]"
