Abstract Synopsis
- Computer-based personality judgments are more accurate than human judgments, especially when using data like Facebook Likes, with computers showing an accuracy of .056 compared to humans' .049.
- Computer models also demonstrate higher agreement among different judges and better predict real-life outcomes such as health, political attitudes, and substance use.
- The ability of computers to outperform humans in personality judgment offers both opportunities for better psychological assessment and concerns related to privacy and ethical use.]
