A friend of @czds and me, Didith Rodrigo, posted an interesting take on affective computing and educational technology. Unfortunately, a link to the post isn’t possible. Dr. Rodrigo teaches at Ateneo University in The Philippines 🇵🇭 Here’s a thread with a snippet. If you find this subject of interest, you should search for her papers in this topic, as well as those she suggests

EU AI Act, approved today despite opposition from states, bans emotion-recognition systems in edu institutions, and destroys startups and companies, including mine.

It’s a massive fail on part of European educators and technologists, that affective learning agents are lumped with AIs scraping CCTV to build facial recog databases.

It destroys so much value, and denies benefits particularly to learners with special needs.

They “rate an employee’s emotional status based on word patterns and content. The company Cogito, for instance, sells software to call centers that records and then analyzes calls between employees and customers, with a real-time behavioral dashboard that tells the employees when to be more empathetic, when to pick up the pace, and when to ‘exude more confidence and professionalism.’”

“We might describe the MoodScope as partaking of drone logic (and drone experience): it envisions a network of mobile, distributed, always-on sensors that underwrite automated forms of data collection, processing and response (targeting). The invocation of ‘mood’ should not distract – it is a placeholder that does not refer to an underlying state but simply to patterns of correlations.”

Next was a fascinating discussion with Abdallah El Ali on designing affective augmentation systems at @chiwork. Using quick applications of heat and cold, the work presented here shows significant changes in affective reactions to statements. The implications of this kind of intervention is profound and complex, and combined with other work in #VR influence presents complex ethical questions.
