Artificial intelligence thinks your face is full of data. Could it actually unmask you?

Why humans, and by extension our machines, are so determined to “read” people.
By Eleanor Cummins Yesterday at 1:30pm


Veoneer's new autonomous vehicle software will read your face as you drive, and make decisions based on your expression.

Each January, some 4,500 companies descend upon Las Vegas for the psychological marathon known as the Consumer Electronics Show, or CES.
 
The 2019 festivities were much like any other. Companies oversold their ideas. Attendees tweeted out the craziest products, and Instagrammed the endless miles of convention space. Trend-spotting was the name of the game, and this year’s trends ran the gamut: drones, voice-activated home assistants, something called “8K” television. But the most provocative robots were those that claimed to “read” humans faces, revealing our emotions and physical health in a single image.

Will it also be able to read the expressions on pedestrians' faces as it runs over them?

No, AI researchers think your face is full of data.

AI doesn't think, it does what it is told.
