Lie detectors don't work, but there's no sucker like a rich sucker. AI scammers sell voice stress analysers to venture capitalists to analyse earnings calls. (archive.today)

Random thought: earnings calls are like streams. Buying/selling stock is subbing/unsubbing. Asking questions is superchatting/donating with a message. AI sentiment analysis is crazed fans hyperanalysing the stream to confirm whatever conspiracy they have about the streamer.

NB: i don’t partake in stream culture
