Belgium Uses an AI that Detects Politicians

Artificial Intelligence is a modern system that can replace someone and that can be implemented in gadgets and devices so that they autonomously do different tasks and tasks. This implies that no one is necessary doing control tasks to guide these systems since they do everything on their own.

Artificial Intelligence composite structures must be very well developed and optimized since a bad application of a machine that uses this system could have very bad consequences. Its operation is based on receiving data and translating it to do certain jobs.

This technology can be a great cost saving for many companies since work that was previously done by a person can now be done by a machine.

Artificial Intelligence, expanding

A large number of objects and devices use artificial intelligence, such as when searching in browsers, in personal assistants like Alexa or even in the most modern cars. It is even currently used in some cities to detect positive cases of COVID-19.

It is also beginning to be widely implemented in the military field, since many robots, drones or machines are being used in this technological era in wars, using less and less traditional equipment.

However, in Belgium an Artificial Intelligence system is being used for something never seen before. All sessions of the Belgian government are broadcast through a live YouTube channel.

Once the live has started, a software that works thanks to an Artificial Intelligence system that is responsible for detecting those politicians who are not paying attention to the issue that is being discussed at that time.

A very useful technology

This works in large part because of facial recognition technology . But it is not only that, but it also detects smartphones in the image, indicative that some politician is using it and being distracted by it.

What is peculiar about this system is that once a distracted politician is detected, two Twitter and Instagram accounts automatically make a post in which the distracted politician is tagged. These accounts are called @FlemishScroller on Twitter and theflemishscrollers on Instagram.

This program works thanks to a programming language called Python, which has been in operation since Monday.

Of course, this application of an Artificial Intelligence system is one of the most curious known today, but it still provides a useful function that will make Belgian politicians pay more attention in their plenary sessions.
