This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I have some stale notes on the AI Hacking chapters of Schneier's "A Hacker's Mind", and in one of those chapters he theorizes how AI might hack human emotions. He brings humanoid robots with cute faces as an example.

You know, I think I have an idea how a social countermeasure to that might look like.
