If you thought you were being watched before by the authorities, think again. A new technological development in eye-tracking will allow others to determine your state-of-mind by watching your eye movements.

With the help of artificial intelligence, machinery will be able to detect your personality traits like agreeableness, conscientiousness, extroversion, and neuroticism. Scientists are still working on other personality characteristics.

The basic premise is to teach machines how to interact with humans. Scientists are excited about this. They point out that robots and computers are not aware of human social signals. They are slowly but surely being taught.
