At some point the signals going to your brain won't be too different. VR + AI experiences have way more potential, and will greatly accelerate the trend of people mapping out their limbic systems.

Sure, but we expect Reddit to treat people badly because that's how it's been for a long time. It seems quite different for a payment processor to lock you out of an account.

The law is enforced top-down whereas morals are enforced bottom-up, so good luck trying to enforce morals with people who think their individuality matters more than anything else.

Yes, free speech doesn't work well in multicultural societies because not being offended is more important. There is no society that could effectively support itself as well as the moral idealism that includes retroactively punishing p

Okay. I'm talking about people particularly spending money on face to face interaction because they can clearly see everything else is subpar. If your argument is that there won't be anyone to spend money, so even the jobs that AI

Text is 2D compared to face to face interaction. It's like assuming a video chat is the same as the real thing when there is so much data being lost. Is it blindly optimistic to assume that people will eventually yearn for more genuine

What the GP said is not justifying their actions but rather outlining what their interests are. It is a morally neutral statement. Explanation is not justification.

There is a clear asymmetry they can take advantage of and it won't be dealt with any time soon, so it's sustainable, and who defines what is reasonable?

AI is saving people the bother of attempting to please others by churning out trite prose, so you have time to be even more idiosyncratic if that's what you really want.

It seems it's often not expressed well to children that there are hard limits to knowledge and potential. Maybe that might seem defeatist, but it seems that to children it is often unthinkable that adults don't usually have everyt

> you could say that for side effects in Haskell, you don’t pay as you go, everyone has to pay all the time. That's exactly why I hated doing IO in Haskell. All the math concepts are overhead too.
