Anyone else mildly terrified by the prospect of an autonomous car that can read your facial expression, check your heart rate and then alter the cabin accordingly? No? Just us then. At this year"s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Kia has unveiled something called R.E.A.D. That spells out READ, but stands for car buzzword bingo cards at the ready Real-time Emotion Adaptive Driving". So in the future, in your autonomous pod, the interior will be constructed of many sensors that monitor your emotional state, makes an assessment using artificial intelligence, and then tailors the interior environment". It is said to create a "more joyful mobility experience" but we"ve watched too many movies. We know how this one ends.
