This initial study offers promising evidence that the approach can be expanded to encompass more social norms.

Key Facts:

  • The AI system uses ten categories of social emotions to identify violations of social norms.

  • The system has been tested on two large datasets of short texts, validating its models.

  • This preliminary work, funded by DARPA, is seen as a significant step in improving cross-cultural language understanding and situational awareness.

    Nice use of the scary word 'violation," really gets the blood pumping. A more apt description would be ‘deviations from social norms,’ which more follows the stated DARPA desire to help with language and cultural barriers. It could give invad- er, liberating American forces a heads up when they are about to commit a cultural SNAFU. Helps build better relationships with the locals.
