The biggest lie tech people tell themselves -- and the rest of us

#artificialintelligence

Imagine you're taking an online business class -- the kind where you watch video lectures and then answer questions at the end. But this isn't a normal class, and you're not just watching the lectures: They're watching you back. Every time the facial recognition system decides that you look bored, distracted, or tuned out, it makes a note. And after each lecture, it only asks you about content from those moments. This isn't a hypothetical system; it's a real one deployed by a company called Nestor.
