In this session...
In 2018, VICE partnered with AI & machine learning consultancy Otso.ai to use IBM Watson (IBM’s AI tool) to crunch 15 years of content & Facebook data in an effort to turn our digital breadcrumbs into powerful insights. Using Ekman’s five pillars of emotion (joy, anger, disgust, sadness and fear) as a lens, the findings from this part exercise in nostalgia, part data storytelling project have given us a fascinating look at what stories and topics engrossed Australia year on year, and how they made people feel.
