Who else in the world knows us better than family and friends?

Is there anyone else in the world who knows you better than the family and friends who live with you every day?

A survey published recently by Stanford University, Cambridge University, shows that two-dimensional computers and artificial intelligence actually know you better than the three-dimensional real-world social circle. Whether it is a person's preferences, habits or mood changes, these seemingly empty data is like a huge net, always more accurate sense of your everything, and betray all this, is the most easy to ignore the "praise".

It is understood that from 2007 to 2011, researchers from the open, responsible, extroverted, easy-going and instability in five directions, through 5 rating evaluation criteria, summed up and surveyed the United States 86,220 Volunteers online survey results, and The researchers were also allowed to get direct access to information on the volunteers ' Facebook. The study found that users ' "point of praise", including articles, videos and audio, had a high degree of coincidence with the user's social attributes and personality.

"We first compared the ' point of praise ' to the match of individual character data by computer."

To that end, Professor Michal Kosinski, the head of the Stanford University Investigation team, cited an example of a person who often liked to read and praised popular fiction articles, and he scored relatively high on open tests of character. Point praise "Content always appears in the talent show users, in the art and literature class test scores are higher;" Apprentice "program to praise people compared to those who like Nikki? Mina (American rapper and singer), who scored higher on individualism assessment, The latter, in terms of teamwork and group organization scores, has a clear advantage.

Just as humans can identify a stranger through a person's family background, education, or appearance, the computer will also use the data to trace a natural person's whole. In other words, with a specific algorithm, a "no emotion" machine will know us better than our family, friends, and even ourselves. For this reason, Professor Michal Kosinski pointed out that the future of "intelligent intelligence with emotional intelligence" is not impossible. "Like the one in science fiction," she said. But he still believes that, although the computer in the "social skills" is increasingly taking the place of human posture, but in the exploration of emotions as the main driving force of personal character, more "perceptual" human still than rely on the algorithm of the machine has advantages, however, Michal Professor Kosinski a joke: "People will be more difficult to get a polygraph."

Is it a good thing or a bad thing to let a stranger know you better than you and make it harder to lie? What do you do when intelligence and technology penetrate the most sensual side of human society?
