ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Amazon is working on a voice-activated device aimed at recognizing your emotions.

Andrew Mach speaks to Bloomberg News technology reporter Matt Day on the tech giant's move to wearable (and very personal) technology and the potential privacy concerns if the device ever makes it to market.
