Gizmodo: Soon Eye-Tracking Technology Will Reveal If You’re Lying.
”The researchers determined that lying requires more work than telling the truth, so they look for indications that the subject is working hard. For example, a person who is being dishonest may have dilated pupils and take longer to read and answer the questions.” Completely stupid and assinine. Why? It means stutterers like myself will be assumed to be lying. We work damned hard to be fluent ALL THE TIME — you IDIOTS.
With my luck, Homeland Security will adopt this, and I’ll end up in Guantanamo.
Comments:
[dilated pupils, eyes wandering, slowly responding]
Th-th-thanks.
