Key Facts:

  • The AI system uses ten categories of social emotions to identify violations of social norms.

  • The system has been tested on two large datasets of short texts, validating its models.

  • This sounds like a prequel to the show Psycho-Pass.

    • Psycho-Pass raises a lot of interesting questions and dilemmas because the technology depicted actually works in that setting (aside from a few outlying cases that help drive interesting plots). If there was a scanner of some sort that actually genuinely could detect violent intention before it was acted on then I think it would be reasonable and moral to use it in at least some manner.
