I think AI recommendations algorithms are too unregulated. Say a person is having or had for example a depression. Recommendation algorithms for advertising tech wants customer to stay on site and view content to sell advertising. So potentially recommendations algorithms could recommend videos or content that transfers depressed or other emotional states to viewers as long as it generates ad revenue. Depending on what the algorithms
senses what others in the same emotional state are viewing. What is the legal liability For transfer these emotions for companies providing these platforms?
On the other side the platform could transfer positive emotions. The issue I see is that we have unregulated emotional and potentially addiction transfers directly to consumers brains. What I mean for cigarettes there is warning here there is nothing but the product is probably as addictive minus health effects.
