On today’s Link Thru Social Media Tech and App show we talk about a Portable 'blood test in a box' to give instant diagnoses; plus after recent terror attacks and Twitter hack, some military spouses say they're changing behaviour on Social Media; and we will tell you all about #NOHairSelfie. As well, did you know that Facebook knows you better than your family?
Facebook knows you better than your family A computer can determine your personality better than your closest friends family by using your Facebook "likes" to judge your character, university researchers found. The study of 86,220 volunteers highlighted how artificial intelligence can use data to accurately predict a person's traits. The researchers at the University of Cambridge and Stanford dubbed the findings an "important milestone" towards more social human-computer interactions. The findings showed that by analyzing just 10 likes on Facebook, the computer could more accurately predict a subject's personality than a work colleague. With 70 likes, it could know more about someone than their friends, and with 150 it would be more knowledgeable than a family member. With 300 likes it could determine your personality better than a spouse, although an average Facebook user has about 227 likes, the researchers pointed out.
