Can Businesses Use "Emotional" Artificial Intelligence?

Episode summary: This week on AI in Industry, we speak to Rana el Kaliouby, Co-founder and CEO of Affectiva about how machine vision can be applied to detecting human emotion - and the business value of emotionally aware machines. Enterprises leveraging cameras today to gain an understanding of customer engagement and emotions will find Rana's thoughts quite engaging, particularly her predictions about the future of marketing and automotive. We've had guests on our podcast say that the cameras of the future will most likely be set up for their outputs to be interpreted by AI, rather than by humans. Increasingly machine vision technology is being used in sectors like automotive, security, marketing, and heavy industry - machines making sense of data and relaying information to people. Emotional intelligence is an inevitable next step in our symbiotic relationship with machines, an in this interview we explore the trend in depth.
