Emaww.ai API Finds Emotion From Touch
| May 10, 2020
Emaww.ai is perhaps one of the most exciting API related projects I have come across throughout my research into the field. The AI computes emotional intelligence from touch and swipes on devices.
In fact, the website you are viewing is using it! Emaww.a cleverly can detect 4 basic emotional states: Awe, Interest, Dislike, and Scurry. The project is headed by academic Alicia Heraz, who has been keeping me updated on their progress.
Back in late 2015, I researched and wrote a comprehensive list of Emotion Recognition APIs. It was so thorough that PepsiCo enlisted me to help inform their innovation division through a consulting sprint.
Since then, I have been keeping a careful eye on this field, as I find it fascinating. For years, emotion recognition software has relied on intrusive facial and voice recognition. I believe that touch is a better, less-intrusive alternative, with many potential marketing, medical, and financial use cases.
I caught up with CTO Itiel Shwartz about leveraging finely tuned models like Komodor’s KlaudiaAI agent for ultra-specific DevOps challenges, like Kubernetes error diagnosis and remediation challenges.
Rolling out AI is all about framing it in a positive light, says GitLab's CTO, Sabrina Farmer. I interviewed her for the latest edition of DirectorPlus for LeadDev, which is out today.
Surmounting risks are encouraging CIOs to future-proof and update their resilience strategies. My latest feature for CIO.com explores resilience head-on.
Today, DX debuted a new developer productivity framework, DX Core 4. Excited to break the news with LeadDev, interviewing one of the designers of the framework.
In this issue of DirectorPlus, Gus Fune shares the story behind reverse engineering a monolithic e-commerce platform following MACH principles, which stands for microservices, APIs, cloud-native, and headless.
Having good API documentation is one thing. Being specification-first is next level. Here are the benefits a specification-driven, git-based approach to documentation can bring to partner API integrations.
75% of APIs stray from their OpenAPI specifications. My feature explores why API drift is so common and how engineering leaders should mitigate this issue.
At the latest KubeCon, Kubernetes maturity, AI workloads, platform engineering, open-source funding, and WebAssembly were recurring themes.
My latest feature for InfoWorld explores where WebAssembly (Wasm) shines and where containers can't be beaten, featuring perspectives from a cast of industry experts.
My keynote from Platform Summit 2024 walks through API economy trends like AI, description languages, spec drift, unbundling, developer experience, governance, and more.
