Ban emotion recognition tech before it’s too late: AI researchers
- Friday | 13th December, 2019
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) – A prominent group of researchers alarmed by the harmful social effects of artificial intelligence (AI) called Thursday for a ban on automated analysis of facial expressions in hiring and other major decisions. It offers AI to analyze facial movements, tone of voice and speech patterns, and doesn’t disclose scores to the job candidates. HireVue said it had not seen the AI Now report and did not answer questions on the criticism or the complaint. The report cited a recent academic analysis of studies on how people interpret moods from facial expressions. AI Now also criticized Amazon.com, which offers analysis on expressions of emotion through its Rekognition software.
