- blue_light_manYou are already at limit of infinity.
- It's also possible you just think of ETH Zurich as great and automatically associate the people and products as amazing. Could be a circular dependency here.
- Top of the funnel.
- Also a profound way to waste your life.
- Language is mostly used for conditioning people into doing things. People will continue using language to manipulate you into giving your time or money to them. You cannot change others from trying to manipulate you. You can only change yourself and stop taking language seriously.
- You assume Alan Turing actually cares about what a bunch of British politicians think of him and the award they choose to give him.
You believe he cares about external validation and things like awards.
You believe he cares about being a billionaire.
You are more or less projecting your beliefs and ideas on what a successful life is on him.
Alan pursued truth throughout his life. Not external validations. He was a scientist not a politician or celebrity or a wannabe make world better startup founder.
Only truth could have set him free. And I hope he found his truth.
- That is true. I guess my ego fooled me as well.
- I am not trying to educate anyone. I am just asking questions. If you think I am trying to educate you that's your ego again trying to make you miss the point being conveyed here.
- How is that relevant? You understood the context and instead choose to focus on the misspell.
- I think you missed the majory of public part.
Interesting. So you make decisions based on what the press tells you? Do you believe the news the press choose to report and not to is based on what they think is good for you? Do you believe the press actually can know what is good for you?
- 1. You assume that what press reports and public opinion is the same thing. It's not.
2. You assume majority of the public actually has an opinion or time to think about whether Sam should run OpenAI. They don't.
3. You assume public opinion is an accurate metric of justice. It's not. We have judicial system for that.
4. You assume Sam makes decisions through his ego and not any other system. You don't know that. Your ego thinks it's true. But honestly you have zero information unless you are really close to Sam in that case you have no reason to make this comment.
- I don't know how that is relevant. Many other surveys lying more doesn't make this any more true.
- Does this also balances out the fact that these are people who choose to respond to their survey and not random sample of all Americans? Are you saying the list of people who choose to respond to their survey is an accurate sampling of the entire American population?
Also why not say we surveyed 6000 people in our list instead and 30% of them have this view? That is more true than saying 30% of Americans have this view which is quite a big jump. There is ofcourse some lying going on here. What are they trying to achieve by lying here is my question.
- They arrived at this conclusion by surveying around 6000 people.
And then made it look like 30% of Americans have this view so that your brain takes the view seriously.
Investigating why they lie to themselves and others to spread this idea is the actual truth here.
