Systematic thinking may be associated with autism. Explains why they're showing up in the crosshairs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empathising–systemising_theory
A real consideration for warehouse staff in some areas.
In addition, a good human knows when to ask for help or feedback. Our AIs are always just as confident whether their output is brilliant or terrible. That's more or less the opposite of what I'd want.
I love this insight, and it generalizes. Just swapping out humans with AIs won't just fix everything, because many of the biggest problems are structural or emergent. I'm hopeful that we can use AI models to pressure…
Democracy had enemies before the founding of the Republic. Our founders warned us that it would require constant maintenance: "a republic, if you can keep it," warned Franklin. Washington cautioned us that political…
You can get vastly different outputs claiming that the input is yours or not.
Wouldn't we expect AJE to be pretty biased in this situation? I was thinking something from Europe or Asia (SCMP) might have less skin in the game.
Abortion used to be a Catholic issue until a Republican strategist saw an opportunity. The point is to get citizens fighting each other on things that are personally important so we're too busy to fight for things that…
>Despite their self-image, I don't think liberals are actually any better at empathy than anyone else. I can see how you think this, since othering and dehumanizing responses rise to the top when people ask how…
One of my favorites. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xwedodah >Xwedodah (Persian: خویدوده xidude; Avestan: xᵛaētuuadaθa) is a type of consanguine marriage historically practiced in Zoroastrianism before the Muslim…
They could also help with color-blindness and face-blindness.
I'd recommend something like Breakfast with Seneca. It's an awesome read, and should hopefully help to differentiate the philosophy or school of stoicism and whatever we have now. We're still human, and the…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_law_of_oligarchy I came up with this idea, too, but was beaten to it by at least 100 years.
Many people raised the alarm back then, and were shouted down by promises that these laws would only be used when appropriate. In 2002, very few would've been okay with tearing apart American families, parents, and…
>It's the same reason vacuum cleaners didn't reduce the amount of cleaning work to be done. It's true that some of the some of the capacity created by technology was consumed by increasing standards, the data do show a…
It's incredibly difficult to stop a well-funded, 50-year plan to subvert a democracy. The attention spans of politicians, corporations, and the public are measured in days, months, or years, not decades. After 9/11, the…
I saw the same thing immediately. The robot arm could be calibrated to use a real slicing motion as well. They're misrepresenting the actual performance of this product. 100% confirmed meme product.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereotype_threat shows up in this list as not replicated, however, it is one of the most studied phenomena in psychology. >meta-analyses and systematic reviews have shown significant…
I know someone who was concerned about depression, and went to get checked. The diagnosis was normal. They were having an appropriate emotional response to very challenging situations.
I was really surprised when I first got an iPhone. After all the hype about it being so intuitive and polished, it was just different. Some things better, some things worse. But Apple devices take a bit longer to go…
The speed of light is rather unaccommodating. We run into human-perceptible relativistic limits in latency. Light takes 56ms to travel half the earth's circumference, and our signals are often worse off. They don't…
Adguard works fine? How are they not friendly?
Pain, like sleep, is a super interesting field and specialization, that is somewhat secondary for most medical practitioners. In physiotherapy, we used to think that structural issues like slipped disks caused pain, but…
Apple wants you to buy both... $100/year may make it worth it for them.
As were many of us before our first introductory freedive course.
