Google has unveiled its PaliGemma 2 AI model family, which can analyze images and identify emotions. This capability allows the AI to generate detailed captions and answer questions about the people depicted in photos. However, experts express significant concerns regarding the implications of emotion detection technology, particularly its reliability and potential for misuse.
The PaliGemma 2 model is based on Google's Gemma open model set and requires fine-tuning for emotion recognition.
