(1/6) Really excited to share that our new paper is out in Nature Communications! 🎉 We asked a simple but surprisingly unexplored question: How accurate are we at judging the intensity of others’ emotions?

(5/6) Moderate overestimation predicts stronger empathic responses toward strangers and greater relationship satisfaction in romantic couples. Sometimes being a bit “off” helps us connect and care. 🤝

Preprint alert! 🚨 Ever tried talking to ChatGPT or Claude 🤖 about emotional events? How did you feel about the response? A thread on my recent work with @AnatPerry, in collaboration with @Amit_Goldenb @FedeZimmerman @joannazli and @_desmond_ong #AI #Research #Empathy 1/

Must watch: A Palestinian describes his visit to the Auschwitz extermination camp: "God wiling you will return to the camp... you belong here." These ideas are common among Palestinians, and now we're seeing them in campuses across the US... #Antisemitism #FreePalestine

When we try to understand others' emotions, how accurate are we? Do we over- or underestimate their intensity? Our 5 studies with texts, videos, & live interactions show we lean towards overestimation. Learn more about our findings at #SAS2024, Mar 2, 4:45 PM. #AffectiveScience

Did you ever watch an interview with children who survived a massacre? These children from Kibbutz Beeri (A village in Israel), survived the massacre of October 7th. Some of their family members were slaughtered by Hamas-ISIS, some of their friends from school are kidnapped by Hamas-ISIS in Gaza. Look into their eyes. If you live in the USA - a massacre like the one in Israel would mean 52,400 Americans murdered and 8609 kidnapped. If you live in Germany - a massacre like the one in Israel would mean 12,914 Germans murdered and 2122 kidnapped. If you live in the Uk - a massacre like the one in Israel would mean 10,457 Brits murdered and 1718 kidnapped. How would your country respond in order to ensure its borders are safe? There is no occupation in Gaza, and the siege, which is both from the Israeli AND the Egyptian side started only after Hamas started firing rockets towards Israel. Would your country let a terror organization fire rockets aimed towards civilians on a daily basis? Step a mile in our shoes. The children of Israel & Gaza will be safe when Hamas will be annihilated. #HamasisISIS #BeforeOct7 #FreePalestineFromHamas

This - the greatest European speech on the Hamas murder raid, Israel war vs Hamas, rising antiJewish racism and toxic sham ‘history’ of Decolonisation - is deeply moving. Its decency and moral clarity is striking…
It's almost four weeks since the horrific terrorist attack on #Israel. A lot has happened, the public debate has become heated and confused. Find thoughts from Vice-Chancellor Robert #Habeck in the video, putting the events in context. 📣With English, Hebrew and Arabic subtitles.

Let’s see if this will be enough or some of the international media, or would they still report that “According to #HamasISIS it was an Israeli attack..”
Attached is a recording of a conversation between Hamas operatives regarding the Islamic Jihad failed rocket launch on the hospital on October 17, 2023:

UNRWA, you can delete tweets because of threats from Hamas, but you cannot hide the reality - Hamas is a terrorist organization that not only harms Israelis but also the residents of Gaza! @UNRWA

Noya is one of many Israeli children kidnapped by #HamasISIS. She is 12 years old, a sensitive, curious, smart, and insanely funny #autistic girl. A fan of #HarryPotter. We need your help in calling for her immediate release. #bringthemhome #HamasWarCrimes #Hamas_is_ISIS

🤖💔 The 'artificial-empathy paradox':AI-generated empathy is convincing and well received, until recipients realize it is artificial. In a Correspondence published in @NatureHumBehav I elucidate this phenomenon #AIRevolution #HumanEmpathy #ArificialEmpathy #AIlimitations
Can AI convey human-like empathy? In a new Correspondence empathy researcher @AnatPerry argues that AI will never convey human empathy levels. nature.com/articles/s41562-0…
