I've seen examples of humans beings shot out of cannons where they were perfectly fine afterwards and the crowd applauded. I haven't seen any examples of people being shot out of cannons where they were not fine afterwards. Should I shoot people out of cannons?
- ArtTimeInvestor 3y agoWhat's your point?
- alienicecream 3y agoThat understanding is not the same as pattern matching and if that's all you rely on to drive your car you're going to end up dead or seriously injured.
- ArtTimeInvestor 3y agoEven when pattern matching is your only tool and you have seen only positive outcomes of humans beings shot out of cannons, you will still not want to shoot people out of cannons. Because it matches so many negative patterns. You learned that explosions are bad, cannons are bad, weapons in general are bad, loud bangs are bad, people flying through the air are bad etc. So this is not an example of pattern matching being insufficient to avoid danger.
