Proving Ground: US+ the app to fix your terrible personality

Have you ever been in a conversation with someone and thought they were really boring - or maybe you felt they weren't responding to what you had to say? Maybe the problem is your personality! But don't despair there's an app to fix that.

Proving Ground: US+ the app to fix your terrible personality

Finally an app to fix your terrible personality!

US+ is a free application that is designed to make you more human with the help of a cruel, unfeeling algorithm.

Using the wizardry of complex algorithms and facial recognition software, a plug-in for Google Hangouts gauges your body language and then delivers opinions on what you should do next.

Think of it like a totally not at all irritating running commentary on your chat. You get tracking bar graphs of Positivity, Self-Absorption, Aggression, Honesty the and somewhat lady-shaming metric of 'Femininity'.

Occasionally it spits out constructive advice like “stop talking about yourself so much.” And if you dont stop it will even auto-mute you until you start to behave.

But would people really be willing to take conversation advice from an app that wants to control your every word? Would everyone suddenly lose their unique personality and start behaving like a robot?
