Tamler welcomes social psychologist David Pizarro of Cornell University to the podcast to talk about his recent article (along with Raj Anderson, Shaun Nichols, and Rachana Kamtekar) on \\u201cfalse-positive emotions.\\u201d When agents commit accidental harms, we typically tell them they shouldn\\u2019t feel too guilty, it\\u2019s not their fault, it was out of their control, and so forth. At the same time, we don\\u2019t want them to let themselves off the hook right away either. They shouldn\\u2019t feel guilty, but also they\\u2026should. What\\u2019s behind these mixed messages and attitudes? Are we looking for information about their character? What kind?

Plus, a new algorithm can predict someone\\u2019s political orientation with 72% accuracy based on one profile photo (either from Facebook or a dating app). Is Big Brother around the corner?
