Lie detectors have always been suspect. AI has made the problem worse. - MIT Technology Review Lie detectors have always been suspect. AI has made the problem worse. - MIT Technology Review Posted: 13 Mar 2020 12:00 AM PDT MMU put out a press release in 2003 touting the technology as a new invention that would make the polygraph obsolete. "I was a bit shocked," Rothwell said, "because I felt it was too early." The US government was making numerous forays into deception-detection technology in the first years after 9/11, with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Department of Defense (DoD), and National Science Foundation all spending millions of dollars on such research. These agencies funded the creation of a kiosk called AVATAR at the University of Arizona. AVATAR, which analyzed facial expressions, body language, and people's voices to assign subjects a "credibility score," was tested in US airports...

Do Lie Detector Tests Really Work? - Psychology Today Do Lie Detector Tests Really Work? - Psychology Today Posted: 14 Jan 2020 12:00 AM PST In February of 1994, the FBI arrested Aldrich Ames, who had been a CIA employee for 31 years. Ames was arrested and charged with espionage. He was a Russian spy. For nine years, he had been passing secrets to the Russians in exchange for over $1.3 million. His spying activities had compromised dozens of CIA and FBI operations. Worse yet, his treacherous crimes had led to the deaths of several CIA spies and the imprisonment of many more. During the time that Aldrich Ames was operating as a Russian spy, the CIA had twice given him a lie detector test. Despite having no special training in how to defeat a lie detector test, Aldrich passed both times.   Source: wikimedia The modern polygraph, better known as the "lie detector test," is a fascinating little instrument with a l...

Blindspot Season 5 Episode 7 Review: Awl In - TV Fanatic Blindspot Season 5 Episode 7 Review: Awl In - TV Fanatic Posted: 25 Jun 2020 08:21 PM PDT This episode was a story about parents and their children. The fugitives found themselves stretched thin as they attempted to eliminate ZIP, the memory-wiping chemical that Madeline had promised to Ivy, on  Blindspot Season 5 Episode 7 . At least one ally of the team was holding tough. Ivy located Allison, but fortunately not Bethany, and turned her over to Madeline, as a show of good faith in Ivy's effort to recapture the renegade FBI agents. Ivy was smug because she got Weller to admit that Bethany was hospitalized while he was drugged on Blindspot Season 5 Episode 5 .  But by then, Allie had relocated Bethany to a safe place where Ivy or Madeline was never going to find her. So Allie stonewalled Madeline, claiming ignorance as to where the fugitives were hiding out. ...

Domestic abuse: Lie-detector tests planned for offenders - BBC News Domestic abuse: Lie-detector tests planned for offenders - BBC News Posted: 03 Mar 2020 12:00 AM PST Image copyright Science Photo Library Domestic violence offenders in England and Wales could face compulsory lie-detector tests when released from prison under proposed new laws. Those deemed at high risk of re-offending will be given regular polygraph tests to find out if they have breached release conditions. The long-awaited Domestic Violence Bill will also specify that controlling a victim's finances can count as abuse. Alleged abusers will also be banned from cross-examining victims in court. Lie-detector tests - which work by measuring changes in heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate and sweat - are not 100% accurate. But the Home Office said it was already using the tests to monitor high-risk sex offenders and had found them to be 89% accurate . ...
