The Artificial intelligence is a technology that is increasingly present in our lives. since he arrived with ChatGPT in 2022 and influences our daily tasks, as well as the workplace. It can also be used for pure entertainment and perform fun actions with applications that contain it, yes, without crossing ethical limits.
We do not know if this case originated out of curiosity or not, but a recent study published in a magazine states that the union of artificial intelligence and facial recognition technology can accurately analyze the political orientation of a person just looking at his expressionless face.
AI can guess which political party you are from
Before performing the experiment, the 591 participants selected They had to respond to a political questionnaire about their political beliefs and then were scanned by artificial intelligence algorithm to try to assess where they are in the political sphere. In addition to studying the differences in facial contours average of men and women liberals and conservativesaccording to the analysis.
The results revealed that smaller faces tended to have a liberal orientation and, on the contrary, a big face would be related to being conservative. I mean, if you have a small face, you’re probably progressive. With this correlation, they made a database of different categories to test the facial recognition algorithm.
The algorithm has the objective of guess what a person’s political orientation is with a high degree of accuracyeven when, according to the researchers, their identity is not correlated with the age, gender and ethnicity. The algorithm’s prediction improved when it knew this information about the participants.
From the study, they indicate a clear connection between political leanings and an individual’s facial features. Most importantly, the findings suggest that biometric surveillance technologies are more threatening than previously thought. Guessing the direction of a policy from a person with artificial intelligence could be very valuable.
