Speeches are written. Interviews are scripted. Personas are cultivated. I'm not sure how it would be able to ascertain whether a politician is a sociopath any more than it would be able to determine whether Brad Pitt is after analyzing one of his films.
- lostlogin 10y agoYour argument would have been a lot stronger this time last year. Brexit and the Philippines are notable examples of some fairly sociopathic political behaviour that fairly closely followed on-record comments. What happens next year will be the exciting part.
- PavlovsCat 10y agoWe don't know how neural nets can do stuff like schizophrenia from CCTV footage, merely from how someone walks, but apparently this and other things are already emerging, and with some earnest effort could provide some real results. Mind you, I was talking about neural suggesting people for clinical diagnosis, not about neural nets diagnosing people. And to be perfectly honest, I'm not even that much interested in the idea (which strikes me as a bit Orwellian), but in the cold feet it would give a lot of people with skeletons in the closet. They don't know that it's not fool proof, they just know they don't want to be found out.
