Artificial intelligence, and that it believes the challenging work of content moderation needs to be done humanely and willingly. so it's established its own ethical and wellness standards for data annotators. machines sifting through and analysing vast quantities of data is powering the accelerating pace of ai development. it's already led to computers acquiring their first real human skill — language. we are at a criticaljuncture, in the sense that we now have machines that understand language, can manipulate language, and even pass for humans for a while with most people. and that was a m...

Having mastered language, al's now beginning to master other human skills, like reading emotions. this is the basis of our technology. this is where we can actually analyse everything that's happening in your face, all the facial muscle actions that you're making, where you're looking. at nottingham university, michel valstar and his team have developed a system that analyses tiny movements in your face to interpret how you're feeling. the eyes are action five, which is your eyes opening. 0k. it's actually a little muscle that comes from the back of your skull and actually attaches to your lid...

And from those sort of basic ingredients of your behaviour, we then determine, for example, different medical conditions that you might have or what emotion you might be displaying. this tech is currently being trialled with nhs trusts in nottinghamshire to help assess the mental health of pregnant women. humans are very bad at picking up gradual changes in their lives. this technology is objective and repeatable, and it will show you a graph, and it should improve as you start doing the treatment. do you think people are ready for al to assess their mental health? well, many people already ar...

In the workplace, it's starting to take on new roles. one of the key things that we've picked up on is the increasing use of al to make really important decisions about people at work. decisions like who gets a job. decisions about how people do their work, who they do it with, where they do it, how quickly they have to do it. and then also, even decisions as significant as whether or not they lose or keep theirjob. in 2018, taxi driver alexandru joined uber. like most uber drivers, he's never actually met his boss. it's a job where we work alone. the only source of information would be your o...

Machines beyond human? hi, lara. hi. good to meet you. thank you for having us. come on in. thanks very much. neuroscientist alexander huth has spent a decade trying to understand how the brain works. if we want to build intelligent machines, maybe we want to make things that act more like human brains. so, that's kind of what got me into neuroscience, actually. this year, his team had a breakthrough. using the same ai tech that can understand language, they've built a computer that can read minds. we scan people's brains with an fmri scanner while theyjust listen to stories. so, we track how ...
