Because AI´s and Computervoices are getting better and better there is now a wearable Device in development that gives one feedback is one is interacting with another AI. It gets cold behind the ear if it´s an AI or Computervoice.

Anti AI AI — Wearable Artificial Intelligence
The post-truth era is just getting started. Near the end of 2017 we’ll be consuming content synthesised to mimic real people. Leaving us in a sea of disinformation powered by AI and machine learning. The media, giant tech corporations and citizens already struggle to discern fact from fiction. And as this technology is democratised it will be even more prevalent.
Preempting this we prototyped a device worn on the ear and connected to a neural net trained on real and synthetic voices called Anti AI AI. The device notifies the wearer when a synthetic voice is detected and cools the skin using a thermoelectric plate to alert the wearer the voice they are hearing was synthesised: by a cold, lifeless machine.
To make this work we developed a custom circuit board using the tiny Simblee BLE Arduino chip, and custom iOS app that streams audio to a Tensorflow application running a neural net trained on synthetic voices.
Thermal Feedback
We wanted the device to give the wearer a unique sensation that matched what they were experiencing when a synthetic voice is detected. Common feedback mechanisms use light, sound or vibration to alert users. By using a 4x4mm thermoelectric Peltier plate we were able to create a noticeable chill on the skin near the back of the neck without drawing too much current.
