And so it's like, I think that the individuation demands of faces maybe are why we kind of had this specialized system to process faces.

These are all these kind of internal things that we don't talk about. And we just assume that everybody's kind of like us, right?

Oh, it's a picture of like, you know, Barack Obama when he was like two years old. And super recognizers can like see it. There's this kind of cool extrapolation thing that you can be like, I can see, you know, how that could be a younger version of Barack Obama.

I mean, maybe you just, like, convinced yourself that you're super and you're not really super.

I mean, you're kind of the complete package for a super recognizer. Wow. I feel like, I mean, maybe when you started taking the test, I was a little skeptical, but I think you're right on. I think this is really good.

Actually, looking at your results, you were perfect on two of the diagnostic tests. You didn't get a single item wrong. You also did really well in this very impossible task where we had you try to learn 60 faces in a very short period of time, and you had to recognize them. like out of 120 faces.

Yeah. No, you did. I mean, that's the thing. We wanted to kind of push you to see what your limits are. And you do have limits, but you were really, you were really quite good.

So it is a little bit of this stealth disorder. I mean, people only kind of learn they have it often when they are subjected to a whole bunch of new people they have to meet.
