AI Can Now Predict Personality from Eye Movements - The New Stack

There's a saying that the eyes are the window into the soul. While at first glance this seems like a piece of idiomatic frivolity, a new algorithm developed by an international team of researchers from Australia and Germany shows that there is some truth to this, showing that the movements of one's eyes and the size of one's pupils can predict certain aspects of personality. The findings, which were published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, suggest there is a link between the way we move our eyes and personality traits. For instance, people who are more curious in nature tend to move their eyes more, while more open-minded people will find themselves staring at abstract images for longer periods of time. "Personality traits characterize an individual's patterns of behavior, thinking, and feeling," wrote the researchers in their paper.
