> Please. Does anyone believe that this will actually happen? We are lazy; we are illogical; we are biased. We will not collectively better ourselves in response to being slowly boiled by distortions of reason; we will sit in the soup until our brains melt out of our heads.
> Take this very post as an example. I’m not an expert in AI, or in psychology, or any of the other subjects that I breezily Googled and cherry-picked links to.8 It’s likely that I committed various logical fallacies, misrepresented some ideas, got some wrong, and extrapolated too much from irreproducible and debunked studies. It’s also possible that the whole post is unremarkable, and common knowledge to anyone who’s spent more than a few days thinking about AI.
OP could ask people to critique his post, he could learn from his errors, and then improve over time (with numerous iterations). It works pretty fantastic in sports, education, and other domains, I don't see why it couldn't work here.
> But do people have the time to consider all of that?
I wonder if OP may have accidentally mistaken his belief for how long it would take for how long it would actually take (which varies by approach, and most approaches are not yet known because that which one does not seek tends to not get found).
