having a discussion
|
What if you were able to express an emotion on social media capturing the richness of what you’re actually feeling? ...and with only a single button press.
Imagine being able to have a conversation, purely via emotional expressions.
What if there could be a simple but powerful visualization of the state of a discussion thus far, capturing each party’s claim, pride, respectfulness, happiness, surprise, seriousness, and disagreeableness?
What if Facebook could track whether the discussion led to agreement, and who was more correct?
Suppose you could be given advanced explicit feedback on the meaning and implications of each emotional expression (e.g., how disagreeable you would be) before you express it.
Imagine that the wider social network could more easily see each person’s social behavior, including how disagreeable he tends to be, and is thereby able to update its judgement about his/her reputation on that basis. ...like in real life where people tend to be much better behaved.
What if Twitter could keep track of how disagreeable someone tends to be, or tends to be to certain individuals, and modulates the social network on that basis?
Our EMOTION CHIP technology has the innovative — and transparent — machinery that, for the first time, allows technology as described in the above “what ifs”.

Background on the EMOTION CHIP:
Most affective computing systems today include (at least) six dimensions -- anger, sadness, fear, disgust, happiness and surprise. Because people can mix multiple expressions together, that means there is a combinatorial explosion of possible expressive mixtures (729, in fact). But what do these more than 700 expressions actually mean? Building software to recognize a consumer’s emotional expression is a complicated challenge. But the power in doing so comes from understanding what the expressions mean, and thereby knowing how the software should respond.
EMOTION CHIP technology addresses this issue, giving rigorous meanings to emotional expressions in the context of your business.
This new groundbreaking theory is the subject of Human Factory founder Mark Changizi's sixth book, WHAT EMOTIONS MEAN.

- What is the consumer’s feeling about what just happened?
- What does the consumer want?
- How serious is he about it?
- What is the consumer’s opinion about the entity it is interacting with?
- How sure of himself is the consumer?
- How disagreeable is the interaction thus far?
