"not much has change in 25"
Sort of par for the course based on numbers I have heard thrown around -
Human Adult brain -> ~10–100 meaningful belief updates/year
Institutions -> ~1–10 updates/decade
Plus there is lot of competition about which updates get priority so things take time.
- gsf_emergency_2 1y agoSeems a bit OT, but exploring the cognitive differences between institutions & humans is fascinating to me. For example, does anyone think that institutions can avoid being held accountable because they have no free will? Can all the remaining free will be offloaded to stakeholders? 100 belief updates, and yet there are generational gaps in social consciousness! How many of these belief updates are advantage-conferring, and if so, should we keep them secret?
