Techniques for automatically reducing annoyance levels of drivers when using driver monitoring systems

In various embodiments, an alert personalization application personalizes in-vehicle alerts. The alert personalization application estimates an increase in a negative emotion associated with an occupant of a vehicle based on at least one characteristic of the occupant. Subsequently, the alert personalization application determines that the increase is associated with a negative reaction to an in-vehicle alert that has a first alert characteristic. In response, the alert personalization application determines that the first alert characteristic should be replaced with a second alert characteristic. The alert personalization causes another in-vehicle alert to be generated that has the second alert characteristic instead of the first alert characteristic.
