>> when we connect that AI to the rest of the computer capabilities out there it quickly becomes something a human couldn't do.

Connecting the AI face recognizer to the cloud or any other system is exactly where the line needs to be.

Disagree. This is a technology that can be secretly or openly deployed in businesses for the sake of emotional exploitation via dynamic displays targeting specific emotional states. I'm against turning the world into anymore of an emotional hunting ground than it naturally is.

You may have just convinced me that this technology needs to be banned outright.

If we rely on the law for protection, we're doomed. This calls for much harder and higher action:

We need a framework for programming ourselves so as to be able to systematically protect ourselves at emotional, mental, and spiritual levels.

Further, any system incentivizing such emotional exploitation needs to leave now. I'm looking at you, capitalism.

Dead link? I'm on mobile if that makes a difference.
