There are so many personality tests you can do online now.
Each gathers its ground truth from a different model - the mbtis or ereththos-something )i forgot what its called) or the astrologies or numerologies all ground you by traits they claim will define the person you are to become in the future.
I think the most interesting part of a personality test is the tiny instant after you have finished and before you see the result. It's like when you determine somehting via a coin toss - for just a split of an instant, if you are paying attention, you might notice yourself wishing for one outcome over the other; before you have the chance to see the probabalistically-laden verdict. In that tiny moment your will asserts itself. You know who you are. You don't even need to think about it, let alone do a 20 minute test to entertain the possibility that someone who has created some algorithm in javascript has more insight into the essence of your being than the one doing the living of youself. Those 300 or so milliseconds before the page loads are the most important. Once you get your results sure, you might have some doubts, but, obviously, you could be wrong. What if, you are not sigma, but are, infact, the sadgeling soyjack :'(((
Before your neural network has the chance to rebound and reflect upon its first outputs, You already know how you are -- better than you ever would if you spent months or years thinking about it. Doing so might allow you to build a more comprehensive model around why you are so, but the simple fact taht you are such a way remains, as it did from the fist millisecond you ever congicised it.
