How the test works

The test doesn't ask what you like. It watches which faces you tap and looks for the pattern.

The faces

Every face is generated by AI: adults aged 20 to 35 across seven broad ethnic groups, with a mix of hairstyles and expressions, in a pool growing toward about a thousand women and a thousand men. They are made to look like ordinary people rather than models, and none of them is a real person.

The crowds

You see 20 crowds of 12 faces. When you tap a face it is replaced by a new one, so you see a few hundred different faces in total. The first two crowds are random and evenly mixed. After that, about half of each crowd leans toward what you've been picking and the rest stays mixed, so your result isn't just an echo of your first taps.

How we read your taste

Each face is described by a few plain features: hair length, texture and color, how big the smile is, a rough age range and, for men, facial hair. We compare how often you pick faces with each feature against how often you pick faces overall. Features you pick much more often than average become "what you keep picking"; ones you pass on become "you pass on".

Ethnicity

We use each AI face's broad ethnic group to keep every crowd mixed, and later crowds can lean toward groups you pick more. We never name your type by ethnicity and never show it as a trait.

You compared with everyone

We count taps anonymously across everyone who plays. For each face that gives a pick rate: how often people who saw it picked it. "Hidden gems" are faces you picked that sit in the bottom 40% of pick rates; "popular, not for you" are faces in the top 25% that you passed on. Your number for "your taste vs everyone" is the correlation between your picks and those pick rates. These parts only appear once enough people have played.

What it can't tell you

This is a read on a few hundred taps, made for fun. It doesn't measure attraction in real life, predict who you'll like, or say anything about anyone's worth. Taste shifts with mood and time, and playing again will give a slightly different result.
