A computer program is better at reading facial expressions than I am.

There is another called The Age Project. People post their photos and others guess their age. I tried it and was out by a large margin on all of them, whereas most people seem to be quite good at it, judging by the accuracy of the average guesses. So it seems that while I might be able to recognise a face, I wouldn't be able to tell if it was 20 or 40 years old!
