Pentagon seeks $30 million for AI-powered lie detector

Original: The Pentagon wants $30M to build an AI-powered lie detector

The Pentagon is asking for $30 million to develop an AI-powered lie detection system, according to MIT Technology Review. The proposal would fund technology that uses artificial intelligence to assess deception, raising questions among readers about the scientific reliability of such tools and the privacy and civil liberties implications of deploying AI lie detectors in security or military screening.

Why now: A US Defense Department funding request for AI-based deception detection is new and touches on surveillance, accuracy, and ethics debates around AI.
