“people generated I think it's about a page or so of sort of diary type written text and asked just large language models like GPT or Claude to analyze that text without knowing anything else and just tell me the the personality profile and it's as good as the ground truth or as another person or a clinician would be”
Ralph Adolphs · Huberman Lab -
“you can tell that AI can tell that just from a transcript of text quite well. So the information is there clearly in what we say, what we write and the order in which that progresses that tells a lot about a person enough that AI can basically diagnose your personality from just text.”
Ralph Adolphs · Huberman Lab -
“large language models have functional emotions as well.”
Ralph Adolphs · Huberman Lab -
