Researchers Come Closer to Achieving "Emotionally Intelligent" AI

"Multimodal sentiment analysis" is a group of methods making up the gold standard for AI dialog systems with sentiment detection, and they can automatically analyze a person's psychological state from their speech, facial expressions, voice color, and posture. They are fundamental to creating human-centered AI systems and could lead to the development of an emotionally intelligent AI with "beyond-human capabilities." These capabilities would help the AI understand the user's sentiment before forming an appropriate response.
