Meet the new AI that knows you better than you know yourself.
Stealing Ur Feelings is a deep learning-powered AR experience which analyzes your facial reactions to reveal the dangers of Big Tech's emotional surveillance programs. Using the AI techniques described in corporate patents, Stealing Ur Feelings learns your deepest secrets just by analyzing your face.
It won the 2020 Webby Award for Best Immersive Documentary.
The project premiered on the internet on September 23, 2019.
It world premiered at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival and was exhibited at the Tate Modern. It was profiled by the Museum of the Moving Image, Scientific American, Engadget, CBC News, and many more; it made the front page of Hacker News; MIT selected it for inclusion in DocuBase, a curated database of people and projects transforming documentary in the digital age.
Stealing Ur Feelings was somewhat notoriously plagiarized by the Financial Times; this event was chronicled in an article for The American Prospect.
The project began life as an application for Mozilla's 2018 awards for art and advocacy exploring artificial intelligence.
