    None. Someday, some company will build and sell a tool that actually does that, and it will be hella privacy invasive. Actually, it’ll probably just be another invasive feature added to the Ray Ban perv glasses.

    Time left to live. There’s plenty of useful things that tell you more about a person, but shinigami eyes would let you save lives and know it, even if no one else does

    And if it turns out the number can’t be changed through your actions, that would tell you a lot. If nothing else, you could say goodbye to loved ones and get incredibly rich by finding a CEO about to run out of time

    Number of cumulative years they would be imprisoned for, had they been caught and convicted of every single crime they ever committed.

    I’m betting most adults are not at zero.

    Fucks left to give.

    Basically, how many spoons someone has left, or how much bad and/or taxing stuff they’re capable of bearing today.

    This would serve two purposes. One. It’d allow me to communicate more carefully or gently with those who require it, two, it’d give me real time feedback on shit I might’ve doing that’s causing a disproportionate amount of harm to someone else.

    Ex: I can be in a wonderful mood and capable of taking all kinds of bad news, but asking me to go out of my way to do an act of service for someone else as a show of affection while I’m in the middle of some self-care after I’ve spent all day working in a service industry will tank my remaining fucks immediately. I’m absolutely certain that others around me have similar reactions to things that I do, and if I could see what they were, I could stop doing them inadvertently.

    Asshole ratio: 0 % = best person in the world.
    100 % = worst person in the world.

    Computed as an average of bad “actions” with respect to all actions.

    Good and bad evaluated with respect to proven positive impact on people’s lifes and the planet.

    Times they told the truth.

    If it’s objective truth, sweet! Motherload I can asking anyone the a question to the secrets of the universe and know whether they’re wild guess was true!

    If it’s subjective truth, also useful, but you know just lies or ignorance detector

    Quality of Life impact: How much damage (or benefit) their actions (work, lifestyle, whatever) have done for the net quality of life across the globe. I figure anyone who drives to work is probably doing a little more harm than good, but perhaps they make up for it by being a good school teacher or something, whereas AI coders might make things worse … but mostly I’d like to see if ANY world leaders score in the positive.

    You could cheese this by picking a statistic for something like “likelihood to agree if asked for a favor”. I’m not going to stress over the wording on how to make it most useful, but something like that could be interesting.

    Or something like “amount of undiagnosed cancers” if you want to save people.
