#24 - Now Every Microphone Is a Lie Detector

Welcome to the future, where hidden cameras capture your iris dilation and heartbeat and face flushes and breathing, and software listens to the stress patterns in your voice, all for the purpose of deciding whether or not you are telling the truth.

Except it’s not the future. It's now.

That's right, we're creeping into the dank dungeons of lie detection and predictive policing and pre-crime, and scaring ourselves rigid with what's already here. We explore whether that's OK. PJ, like so many people really, thinks sure - I'm not doing anything wrong... but take a listen to what Dr Bruce reveals - and then see what you think.   

Won't you come with us? And while you're here, won't you answer a few questions?
Face that way, please. Don't worry about the light. Or the gun.

Do you love our podcast? Is it the very best ever? Have you shared it with ALL your friends? The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, please, OR WE'LL KNOW! 

And for the record, when we're doing real work and not podcasting, you'll find Dr Bruce, The Global Futurist presenting here and PJ applying his digital marketing genius here. Enjoy!
