Emotional AI

Today, we will talk about use of emotions AI in Netflix. Netflix is an amazing platform with so many movies and shows for all age groups. From children to adults, it has content for everyone. Out of every show, my favorite is how i met your mother. It is a sitcom with a run time of average 22 mins per episode. There are 9 seasons in the series. The protagonists are Ted, Marshall, Barney, Robin, and lily. Marshal and lily are dating since a long time and plan to get married soon. Barney is a single hunk. He keeps on hitting on girls and does the weirdest stuff on this planet. He is very funny and his dialogue delivery is insane. ted is the sweet kid of the show. He is like that perfect combination of cute and loyal. He loyally loves Robin for years and then lets her go for her own sake and happiness. Marshall is another character who is pursuing law in the show. He is dating lily. Marshall is kind of brainless but also very funny. Robin!! Robin is the most perfect a girl...

Emotions and technology, believe it or not, are now related Do you know someone who suffers from depression? I bet your answer is yes, it can be either a friend, a family member or a friend of a friend. What would you recommend them to do? Go see a psychologist? What is the first thing that comes up to your mind when I say emotions? I might not know your specific answer, but I know you eventually thought about the direct relation in between humans and emotions. Could you imagine a robot that can understand your feelings as the same level of a human? It might sound crazy at a first glance, but thanks to EAI it is now a reality.    The Freudian theory states that psychologists can not get emotionally involved with their patients, due to subjectivity and the temptation to provide personal advice. If we further analyze this, we will come to the conclusion that this trait is normal, as it reflects the natural human instinct of being compassionate. I...

“Detected fatigue level: 100, please take the next exit" Artificial intelligence is moving from the outside into your car Modern cars today are equipped with increasingly more cameras and sensors to diligently scan and analyse their outside surrounding, with the ultimate goal of enabling stage 5 autonomous driving. But this is nothing new to you, right? However, original-equipment-manufacturers, suppliers and start-ups are now increasingly looking to turn these cameras and sensors into the car as well. Regulation, insufficient technology and the mere pleasure in driving are just some reasons why stage 5 autonomous driving may still take a while until large scale implementation. For this reason, I want to show you how emotional artificial intelligence can improve the driver safety and enhance your driving experience. Emotions influence your driving behaviour Also nothing new: your emotional state is directly correlated with your driving performance. Fo...

A better agriculture thanks to AI?  AI killer or healer?  For thousands of year, men have been relying on agriculture to live, which has proved to be risky, as it relies on things we cannot control (weather, wars, political situation, etc.).    What if AI could help us increase agriculture's returns and improve it's reliability?       AI computers can process billions of data points and turn them into a coherent set of information, which will help them predict future behaviours or probability that an event happens.       In farms, these data points are produced daily but not taken into account by farmers because it is too much. With AI, farmers could deal with- and analyse a wide variety of data in real-time, such as weather, temperature, water usage, and soil condition. All this data directly collected from their own farm to adequately inform their decisions.   1- How ...

As much as the application of Emotional AI in the field of psychology was fascinating, it was just the tip of the iceberg! Today’s post is just as amazing, I will be diving into the world of marketing and see how Emotional AI can renew the marketing universe. Over the years, we have seen marketing and its strategies evolve drastically from a traditional, offline way of doing to a digital, online form. Digital marketing seemed to be the next big thing until Artificial intelligence (AI) came up and started showing its supremacy. The development of AI provides brands with ample opportunities to connect with the customers on an emotional level. Since the companies are striving day in and day out to become more and more customer centric, nothing puts the customer more in the focus than actually noting down the real time expressions and emotions of the customer and personalizing services for them. Sounds fascinating right? It is! In fact, many companies have already started...

Before you continue to read about this controversial topic, I would like to ask you some questions. Do you know someone who suffers from depression? I bet your answer is yes, it can be either a friend, a family member or a friend of a friend. What would you recommend them to do? Go see a psychologist? What is the first thing that comes up to your mind when I say emotions?

Over the next years, 3 million workers will be supervised by "robot-bosses".  How does this make you feel? If this sounds alarming, I welcome you to join me on my journey. In this blog, I will explore and share my knowledge and findings of emotional artificial intelligence (EAI).  To better understand the EAI concept, I will start by asking the following: do we have an analytical or social interaction with machines? If you answered analytical - you would have been correct up until now. This is due to the fact that systems and devices could not interpret our expressions and body language.  Now, this has totally changed and social interactions with machines are possible. EAI, also known as affective computing, permits machines to recognize human emotions through the identification of voice inflections and micro expressions. Having a machine that understands, captures, and reacts to emotions increases the effectiveness of the interchan...
