Bad news for the “emotion AI system” tasked with determining how you’re feeling in everything from job interviews to the classroom: Scientists can’t tell what anyone is feeling from their facial expressions either.
“In the real world, an emotion like anger or sadness is a broad category full of variety,” a scientist who did a meta-analysis of scientific papers about emotional expression, wrote.
“In short, we can’t train AI on stereotypes and expect the results to work in real life, no matter how big the data set or sophisticated the algorithm.”
