AI can read your emotional response to advertising and your facial expressions in a job interview. But if it can already do all this, what happens next? In part two of a series on emotion AI, Jennifer Strong and the team at MIT Technology Review explore the implications of how it’s used and where it’s heading in the future.

We meet:

  • Shruti Sharma, VSCO
  • Gabi Zijderveld, Affectiva
  • Tim VanGoethem, Harman
  • Rohit Prasad, Amazon
  • Meredith Whittaker, NYU’s AI Now Institute
