We have laws and a justice system that disincentivizes bad behavior. The existence of holes in that system does not mean that an effective system is impossible. Plenty of bad person stuff is illegal and punishable. It should be illegal (a

You’re describing a GAN basically. But yeah, you’re going to need an objective metric or human input otherwise the system is going to diverge in strange ways.

As a university student, I’m going to play the other side. I’ve found it incredibly useful as a bespoke tutor. The professor explains something complicated or that you don’t know? Ask it mid-lecture for a simpler explanation. I’ve used it t

It's kind of interesting in this context because it's mostly the tech solutions here that are famously extractive. The old ways of phone calls and letters work well. We don't need technologists, we need politicians.
