They could have just posted the bar chart and called it a day.
Why is it that when there is so little money out there for real research, there always seems to be plenty floating around for BS like this?
- Joof 10y agoI'd guess it's like bikeshedding. Everyone understands the results of this type of study.

Everything else was idle speculation over an arbitrary measurement of "happiness". If they just kept giving Minsky the money like they should have, we could have strong AIs Terminatoring us right now, and we could just get it all over with.
