How our brain judges people in a split second | DW Documentary

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.

Summary: - Brain judges based on first impressions are developed long ago when our ancestors lived without language. And everything they decide is based on gesture, face, or voice. A fast conclusion is very important for survival. - We have a tendency to do mimicry of people that we talk with. The more we try to do the same (gesture, expression, or voice), it means that we are interested in/like that person. - If we explain something with a smiley face, the listener could be smiley too. It is gonna be different if we use serious faces to explain something. - Until now, it is difficult to identify whether people lying or not. Because, people that confident about what they said and feel that the witness is true, seem so hard to identify that they were lying. - We can learn how to communicate to be more likable. For example, emphasizing words can send a clear signal, and we need to consider short pauses too. It can be learned, like learning new vocabulary or grammar. - We react to these cues from a very young age - Our brains are lazy because we want to minimize our energy level, so we tend to make fast predictions, expectations, impressions, or judgments about something, like places, people, and stuff. - Are we can unlearn stereotypes? It seems NO. more conscious or less conscious, people are applying stereotypes.

[@Letizia2810]

I believe you. I have a big nose and what I perceive-beside people who already knows me- people who just meet me analyze my face, my accent, and so on and on. When I got a nose filler I remember going to interviews was so different…. People smiled more, they felt like they could trust me more, I believe that an important nose makes some people uncomfortable, doubtful, or they just prefer someone with a smaller nose, because a big nose might give you the feeling of a big personality… Well I still see people talking and acting different to me now- with nose filler. Also smiling or not smiling, changes so much other people perceptions… Personally I’ve never judged through facial features, clothing or facial expressions. However I have a big perception about someone’s voice- tone. I think communication is soo fascinating. I also do social experiments with my pets 🤣 They can recognize when I say something negative or when I compliment etc… I believe we’re all very electric somehow. The strongest thing is the voice in my opinion!

[@christopherp.hitchens3902]

“Fluid” intelligence …and “Crystalized” intelligence? It’s been decades since my graduate studies…but I have run into this double-speak before. I have learned to use some healthy skepticism when hearing others indulge in what appears to be normal shop talk. It’s been my experience that the definition of intelligence (and Aristotle) is knowing how little we know. This documentary, as “beautiful” as it appears, repeated several errors, including the curious “Primates process vocal cues the same way WE DO”…ignoring the fact that WE ARE PRIMATES TOO!

[@karadiberlino]

Those are not „uncomfortable social concepts“, they are prejudices. And those who see them everywhere are often those who are the most prejudiced. ☝🏼 Entitlement and superiority are in fact the uncomfortable social concepts, that cause so many problems… 🙄

I find the process ridiculously convoluted & highly stressful which is frustrating when you want to help the ever increasing need for mental health workers.

It's a much broader issue than first impressions. Human beings are intricately involved in how they appear to one another, from love to hate, a persons appearance is a conclusive stimulation of everything from rejection, acceptance, sexual attraction and more. Everything in your life is determined by your appearance, your opportunities, your inclusion or your disenfranchisement. It's what Fashion is all about including the overt desire to be sexually attractive, 80 billion articles of clothing are sold each year, about 49 billion dollars a year are spent on cosmetics in the USA alone, on top of that the psychology of marketing attempts to make you feel unacceptable if you are not up to date with the latest fashions or involved with make up. How we appear and how others appear to us is so intrinsic that we never know we are involved in discrimination or full blown acceptance of others or ourselves. It is what movies are all about, we watch others with a hawk's eye, even babies sit in front of videos of other babies enthralled and will watch intently. Our societies are based upon how we perceive each other, social ranking and economic success, even pairing up and mating are heavily influenced and for the most part beyond our control. At this point we don't even know who we are and remain a product which is very significant in that it is very profitable but invariably pitiful.

I speak in a lower tone , slower rate and with rise and fall to differentiate and/or stress important concepts/ideas. It’s just more effective communication. Re: first impression , like my mother , i m pretty accurate in judging ppl. I think it’s because I take into consideration of several cues verbal, auditory , facial. It’s also important to recognize changes or discord in cues. But in general, I trust but confirm.

i remember when google used to ask you to say what you thought people were thinking or feeling by their expressions and body language and i remember noticing that these were all people from off their webcam and that they definitely did not know google was recording them and then showing their faces to strangers to judge. Did anyone else do these 'surveys' for them? i have tape over all my cameras now. once i did that i noticed a slew of applications that werent previously on my phone/computer. they do record all video and audio of us as possible. and this was before AI and I assumed then it was for what is now called google assistant

Face? What happens if I have Ugly face? . Even good looking people have bad personality. Personality means mask. What you see from outside is not reflecting on inside sometimes. That's why people fall victim of fake love and hurt kidnapping all other stuff.

what about if a person is behaving rather suspicious or odd and this makes you sense danger. Do you disregard your survival gut instincts and risk the possibility of genuine physical harm in order to remain nonjudgemental?

The problems is not everything is as 100% accurate. Through long time of this automatic process, mind assume what it's done as pure correct without conscious thinking involvement. It's became anchoring of those images and audio from the passed experience and applied to the new engagements, where slightly misinterpreted always cause an unfair outcome.

It explains why we don’t have a lot of Africans on construction sites in Australia. In construction sites you have many different challenges, safety is important and deadlines . Australia needs workers , we have opportunities, massive immigration, but they just don’t seem to be able to be employed. Chinese make good accountants , Indians good truck drivers, Pacific Islanders good warehouse workers. Out of the races that came to Australia, the Vietnamese stand out. Hard working, good people. I try not to stereotype, but I have seen this as a European Australian, what worked and what didn’t
