Show Notes
A 6-second kiss cam moment at a Coldplay concert turned into a career-ending nightmare for Astronomer CEO Andy Byron. Malcolm Wechota analyzes how AI tools - from facial recognition to emotion detection - accelerated this personal catastrophe, exposing why the EU AI Act's bans on social scoring and surveillance are powerless against crowd-sourced AI vigilantism.
