China Using ‘Emotion Recognition Technology’ to Arrest People
Breitbart ^ | 4 Mar, 2021 | FRANCES MARTEL

Posted on 03/04/2021 2:59:04 PM PST by MtnClimber

China’s state-run Global Times boasted in an article on Thursday that Chinese people are increasingly becoming accustomed to the use of “emotion recognition technology,” artificial intelligence that allows the government to track human feelings, as part of everyday life.

The Global Times illustrated the usefulness of this technology with an example in which police arrest passengers of a car after using artificial intelligence to discover drugs in their car. “Emotion recognition technology” tells the officers that the passengers are more nervous than the average person at a checkpoint, which they use as an excuse to search the car.

The notoriously repressive Communist Party is allegedly applying “emotional recognition technology” in “various fields including health, anti-terrorism, and urban security,” according to the Global Times.

The development of this technology to criminalize feelings follows increasingly alarming developments in Chinese law enforcement, most recently the revelation that Chinese technology giant Huawei is developing facial recognition technology that can identify a person’s ethnicity, making it easier for Chinese police to persecute members of the Uyghur ethnic minority. Multiple governments around the world, including the current and past administration of the United States, have accused China of committing genocide against the Uyghur people.

“But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new dark age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science.” - Winston Churchill

It appears we failed, Sir Winston.

Same basic principal as a Lie Detector Test.
Measures body function reaction to certain stimulus.
They should not forget that some people are unaccustomed to having any contact with the law whatsoever, save the rare traffic ticket. These folks are going to be keyed up for the first hour or so.

Conclusion: ‘Mind Reading’ FAIL!

I believe it was called “Thoughtcrime”, the means by which Big Brother tracked probable criminals. Found by reading body language, then interpreting the various twitches and involuntary movements as representing concealed thoughts or recollections.

"The Thought Police should go after democRATs.:

The "democRats" no longer exist...
They have morphed (come out of the closet) as full-fledged communists...

The American communist Thought Police will definitely be using this technology before summer ends...
The Harris-Pol Pot-losi administration will make sure of that...

Liars. Biden praised China, but did not accuse them of anything bad.

Google will be all over it, unless they invented it for the CCP. The Regime will be taking a hard look at importing it. Nothing says Trump supporter than a happy smile

On occasions on which we have nothing to hide we’ll have to make a point of learning to sweat buckets and act shady and nervous to generate false positives until the operators come to regard the technology as useless.
