    Makes sense. How physiognomy was used in the 19. century was bullshit (phrenology with skull measuring and whatnot) but the face is a display of your genetical base, your hormonal exposure while growing up and of your health currently. Btw, that’s why the face is important in dating.
    And you do use it the same way in social context, although subsconsciously.

      Its also affected by which direction the sun hits your house from, your commute to work (if applicable) and what kind of diet you had when growing up.

        Look, i’m an Asperger and use the same mechanism regularly, to guess how the person would react. It’s not obscure and not bullshit. People just don’t like that they are more transparent than they think.

      This just one scary side of AI.

      The idea of corporate level integration of this stuff is straight out of Black Mirror.

      We’re right around the corner from the corpo AI keeping tabs on your pupil dilation as you read your emails. If we aren’t there already.
