03:00   Starting when I was a magician as a kid,
03:02   where you learned that there's things
03:03   that work on all human minds,
03:05   it doesn't matter whether they have a PhD
03:06   or whether they, you know, what education level they have,
03:09   whether they're a nuclear physicist,
03:10   what age they are, it's not like,
03:12   oh, if you speak Japanese I can't do this trick on you,
03:14   it's not gonna work, or you have a PhD,
03:16   it works on everybody.

03:17   So somehow there's this discipline
03:19   which is about universal exploits on all human minds.

https://youtu.be/v0sWeLZ8PXg?t=308
05:08   Now people, some people, corporations, governments,
05:12   they are gaining the technology to hack human beings.

05:23   - Well, explain what it means to hack a human being,
05:27   and why what can be done now is different from
05:30   what could be done a hundred years ago with religion
05:34   or with a book or with anything else

05:40   - To hack a human being is to understand
05:42   what's happening inside you on the level of the body,
05:45   of the brain, of the mind,
05:47   so that you can predict what people will do,
05:50   you can understand how they feel,
05:53   and you can, of course, once you understand and predict,
05:55   you can usually also manipulate and control
05:58   and even replace.
06:00   And of course it can't be done perfectly,
06:03   and it was possible to do it
06:04   to some extent also a century ago,
06:07   but the difference in the level is significant.

06:22   The algorithms that are trying to hack us,
06:25   they will never be perfect,
06:26   there is no such thing as understanding perfectly everything
06:30   or predicting everything.
06:32   You don't need perfect,
06:34   you just need to be better than the average human being.

https://youtu.be/v0sWeLZ8PXg?t=922
15:22   One of the interesting things that I've been following
15:24   is also the ways you can ascertain those signals
15:27   without an invasive sensor,
15:29   and we were talking about this a second ago.
15:31   There's something called Euler video magnification,
15:35   where you point a computer camera at a person's face,
15:39   and a human being can't look at,
15:40   I can't look at your face and see your heart rate.
15:43   My intelligence doesn't let me see that.
15:45   - You can see my eyes dilating, right,
15:47   and you can see-- - But I can see
15:48   your eyes dilating, so-- - 'Cause I'm terrified of you.
15:49   - But if I put-- (everyone laughs)
15:51   If I put a supercomputer behind the camera,
15:54   I can actually run a mathematical equation,
15:57   and I can find the micropulses of blood to your face
16:00   that I as a human can't see but the computer can see,
16:02   so I can pick up your heart rate.
16:04   What does that let me do?
16:04   I can pick up your stress level
16:06   because heart rate variability gives you your stress level.

'Poker face' stripped away by new-age tech
Published Apr 14, 2018, 3:23 pm SGT

VANCOUVER (AFP) - Dolby Laboratories chief scientist Poppy Crum tells of a fast-coming time when technology will see right through people no matter how hard they try to hide their feelings.

Sensors combined with artificial intelligence can reveal whether someone is lying, infatuated, or poised for violence, Dr Crum detailed at a big ideas TED Conference.

"It is the end of the poker face," Dr Crum said.

16:19   But this talk is about the erosion of that,
16:21   that we can point a camera at your eyes
16:23   and see when your eyes dilate,
16:25   which actually detects cognitive strains
16:26   when your having a hard time understanding something
16:28   or an easy time understanding something.
16:30   And we can continually adjust this
16:32   based on your heart rate, your eye dilation.

16:47   your big five personality traits,
16:50   if I know Nick Thompson's personality
16:53   through his openness, OCEAN, openness, conscientiousness,
16:56   extrovertedness, agreeableness and neuroticism,
16:59   that gives me your personality,
17:00   and based on your personality
17:02   I can tune a political message to be perfect for you.

https://youtu.be/v0sWeLZ8PXg?t=1037
17:17   But now this woman named Gloria Mark at UC Irvine
17:20   who's done a research showing
17:22   you can actually get people's big five personality traits
17:25   just by their click patterns alone, with 80% accuracy,

17:35   We're gonna be able to point AIs at human animals
17:38   and figure out more and more signals from them,
17:40   including their micro-expressions,
17:41   when you smirk and all these things.
17:42   We've got face-ID cameras on all of these phones,
17:46   so now if you have a tight loop
17:47   where I can adjust the political messages in real time
17:50   to your heart rate and to your eye dilation
17:53   and to your political personality,
17:56   that's not a world you want to live in,
17:57   it's a kind of dystopia.

Consent in a world of inference

For example, imagine that an algorithm could inspect your online purchasing history and, with high confidence, infer that you suffer from an anxiety disorder. Ordinarily, this kind of sensitive medical information would be protected by HIPAA, but is the inference similarly protected? What if the algorithm is only reasonably certain? What if the algorithm knows that you’re healthy now, but will suffer from such a disorder in the future?

The question is not hypothetical—a 2017 study showed that a machine learning algorithm examining photos posted to the image-sharing site Instagram was able to detect signs of depression before it was diagnosed in the subjects, and outperformed medical doctors on the task.
