  • Friend or foe? In a fraction of a second, our brain forms an impression of a person based on their facial expressions and voice. And artificial intelligence is getting better and better at interpreting human emotions.
    Faces and voices are the first impressions we get of people we don’t know. In less than half a second, we decide whether we like or trust a person, and how intelligent we think they are. That’s thanks to the astonishing processing power of our brains. We learn to read facial expressions as babies, and as we grow older we continue to interpret emotions according to facial expressions. The voice also plays a crucial role: speed, syntax, tone, and phonetics all provide information about what a person is feeling.
    But we are not the only ones who can decipher human emotions. Artificial intelligence technology is also learning to read faces and voices. A photo or a spoken sentence is usually enough to get information about identity, health, emotions and even personality. And the internet has become a vast and ever-growing database of faces and voices. Based on the sound of a voice, artificial intelligence can now detect whether a person suffers from Parkinson's, depression or even Covid-19. In this documentary, international experts offer insight into the latest science, illuminating how our brains work -- and the potential of artificial intelligence.

    I think the documentary should have included how Deaf people analyze Faces and Blind people analyze Voices. Otherwise, very well done. Thank you.

    Beautiful documentary that highlights something I'm currently studying in undergrad psych -- fluid and crystallized intelligences. Which abilities are we born with, and which do we learn? In combination with this documentary, its hard to overlook some uncomfortable social concepts like racism, inequality and class division.

    For me, first impression and feelings are very correct most of the time. I can feel if a group of people is right for me or not whenever I enter any place.

    The documentary has given me inspiration and insight in selecting a topic for research in psychology... Thank you DW Docs. More research needs to reviewed on this topic as this technology will surely be used as a weapons all over the world.

    Every time I would go into a new job, I would be somewhat pushed into a management position (which I normally avoid) and as time went on, I don't believe this is only because of my work ethic and eye contact, social intelligence - but more so because of my facial expressions and just the way my face looks in general. This documentary answered a ton...

    Since I have a guarded personality and need a lot of personal space, it is hard for me to warm up to people fast, especially people who are too friendly or quick to invade my space (ask too many questions for example). I can honestly say that I have not yet allowed questionable people into my life. I am quite good at keeping people I don’t get along at arm’s length. When it comes to people association, I am no pushover.

    I have never had that instinct for reading a person only based on a first impression. I wouldn't say autism is involved, but I either have to totally trust or totally not trust. The only way to protect myself is to totally not trust by default. Then slowly learn to trust as I get to know them. I try not to make any decisions after a first impression because I can't trust it.

    I trust nobody until I have known them for a few years, and have direct experience of their atypical behavior and opinions.

    And some people have rare voice disorders that can make it impossible to control your pitch, tone etc and causes different microexpressions trying to get the words out. Keep that in mind when forming your impressions

  • @wellthatsinteresting1

    This may work easily on the normal everyday average Joe but it would be interesting to see how all of these
