AI experts doubt Amazon's new Halo wearable can accurately judge the emotion in your voice, and worry about the privacy risks

But experts say that even without human beings listening to the audio Tone records, there are significant privacy implications.

"I am alarmed when I hear about this type of assessment being recorded, because, while I see zero benefit from it, employers definitely might. Insurers definitely might. Public administrators overseeing the issue of benefits definitely might," she added. John Hancock announced Thursday it would be the first life insurer to integrate with Amazon Halo. "Starting this fall, all John Hancock Vitality customers will be able to link the Amazon Halo Band to the program to earn Vitality Points for the small, everyday steps they take to try to live a longer, healthier life," the insurance firm said in aKaltheuner said it's good that the Tone feature is opt-in, but anonymized data from Halo could still be shared in bulk with third parties.

Wachter said that if, as Amazon claims, an algorithm was capable of accurately analyzing the emotion in people's voices, it could pose a potential human rights problem.
