Hey, I'm an epistemic anarchist, you don't have to convince me mysticism is a good idea. I'm just saying that "personal subjective spiritual revelation" is about as far as you can get from "objective or intersubjective repeatable results."
It's not "this guy is responsible for evaluating our AI work and also goes to church on Sunday", it's "this guy is responsible for evaluating our AI work and also thinks God is speaking to him personally and directly about the quality of that work." If you think your code reviews are bad now, imagine if the reviewer thought they only needed to answer to God.
- crawfordcomeaux 4y ago> "and also thinks God is speaking to him personally and directly about the quality of that work." Did i miss a quote from Lemoine claiming this?
- armitron 4y agoThat’s the definition of mysticism and lemoine has described himself as a mystic.
- crawfordcomeaux 4y agoThat's a definition of mysticism and Lemoine hasn't publicly explained what it means for him, to my knowledge.
