Artificial intelligence thinks it can detect if you're telling the truth

The right combination of artificial intelligence and augmented reality could put and end to lies. That is the ambitious working hypothesis of several different teams of scientists, businesses, and institutions that have committed themselves to fighting deception by means of technology, so as to assure the safety of citizens around the world. The ethical debate resulting from these innovations is as complex as the mechanisms that must be applied to achieve this objective. Be that as it may, the first steps in this direction are being taken by means of devices that are as practical and affordable as smart phones and smart glasses. Traditional lie detecting machines--that is to say, polygraphs--measure breathing, blood pressure, and other physiological indicators to detect levels of stress in those who are being interrogated.
