Everyone says my face shows no emotion and they can never tell what I'm feeling (and when they try to guess they are wrong 9/10). I'd love to know what this would say about me. If this can tell what I'm feeling then that would be awesome. Headline: Computers are better at detecting human emotion than humans.

I took the bullet for you; I have a similar lack of expression. It just outputs very low confidence results, so the end result is junk. That said, I think that drives the point home even harder, as its built a profile based on incorrect data.

haha yes same. women try to guess my intentions and fail spectacularly when I'm largely indifferent close friends try to understand if I'm annoyed when I'm largely indifferent but my smile gets me into all the rooms I want to be in, so thats great! the sociopath reddit told me to gtfo because I'm clearly not one, so that had an odd relieving sting to it but I should have predicted that they would lack empathy

In some parts, the player shows raw scores for emotions, and one of them is "neutral". I was 99.9999% neutral or more for the entire event, never breaking my apparent poker face until it called me possibly brain damaged at the end, which I found funny for some reason. The claims about IQ and left/right leaning are possibly arbitrary and just meant to stir discussion and virality. For it to be any amount confident in it's claims, I imagine you need to be at least somewhat expressive. However, I don't expect most users of the average NN classifier to pay more than a little attention to how often what they classify something as is less than 80% confident.

  > The claims about IQ and left/right leaning are possibly arbitrary and just meant to stir discussion and virality. Yeah, I found it very amusing that this thing concluded I was highly republican. First, I am not from the USA, second I am strongly for social programs/socialist, and third, current USA republicans amuse me (in that, what they are doing is funny to see from outside).
