Meet the new AI that knows you better than you know yourself.

[*Stealing Ur Feelings*](https://stealingurfeelin.gs) 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*](https://stealingurfeelin.gs) learns your deepest secrets just by analyzing your face.

The project [premiered on the internet](https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2019/09/23/introducing-stealing-ur-feelings-an-interactive-documentary-about-big-tech-ai-and-you/) on September 23, 2019. 

It world premiered at the [2019 Tribeca Film Festival](https://www.tribecafilm.com/festival/archive/stealing-ur-feelings-2019) and was exhibited at the [Tate Modern](https://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-modern/tate-exchange/workshop/higher-resolution). It was profiled by the [Museum of the Moving Image](http://scienceandfilm.org/articles/3216/stealing-ur-feelings), [*Scientific American*](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/this-video-watches-you-back/), [*Engadget*](https://www.engadget.com/2019/05/02/stealing-ur-feelings-ar-film-facial-recognition-tribeca-2019-kanye-pizza/), [CBC News](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/stealing-ur-feelings-1.5362954), and many more; it made the front page of [Hacker News](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21337863); [MIT selected it for inclusion in DocuBase](https://docubase.mit.edu/project/stealing-ur-feelings/), a curated database of people and projects transforming documentary in the digital age.

[*Stealing Ur Feelings*](https://stealingurfeelin.gs) was somewhat notoriously plagiarized by the *Financial Times;* this event was chronicled in an [article for *The American Prospect*](https://prospect.org/culture/stealing-ur-website-emotion-recognition-ai-financial-times/).

The project began life as an application for Mozilla's 2018 [awards for art and advocacy exploring artificial intelligence](https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2018/06/04/mozilla-announces-225000-for-art-and-advocacy-exploring-artificial-intelligence/).
