We know what the internet has developed so far, and it's not all positive. We don't know what and how LLM will impact the future.

OK. But the comment I responded to call it a passion/prestige project and contracted it with a normal profit driven business. If you want to just make money, there are far easier and less risky industries you can invest your money in

Businesses like SpaceX and Blue Origin are really prestige/passion projects, not normal capitalist enterprises which are all just about making a buck.

A university isn't a place that trains a person. That's what colleges and vocational schools are for. Rather, a university is a place where resources are made available so that a person can learn for themselves. Hardly. Youtube

People mostly rely on social proof and what other people believe around them. This isn't a character flaw, it's just the reality of not being able to know everything.

I don't think this is the main contention. It's about what people are fundamentally capable of achieving absent EQ and other factors and taking into account only IQ. I am simply more optimistic.

I would define my standard as something achievable by mere mortals rather than 'great' if we want to say that most people are capable of learning skills/field of knowledge, say a PhD. paradoxically, understanding this isn&#x

It's easy to see this is untrue. replace intelligence with physical ability and it quickly becomes obvious that not everyone is going to be a great boxer or a great basketball player. The standard is fuzzy by what you mean a 'gr

Agency is only useful if incels are self aware, desire to change, and have a pathway for changing themselves. One can sympathize with them for the bad hand they were dealt, and still not give them a free pass for misogyny. I am not giving

I am not going to discount intelligence as somehow unimportant. After all I basically skated through grade school without having study skills. This bite me in the ass when I actually do need to use study skills. I believe most people are su

Curiosity is secondary to learning objectives such as being able to get a job, or simply getting a good grade. That would require restructuring our educational system and by extension our whole society. That's a tall order.

Self learning and self study is a skill poorly taught or not taught at all. There should be classes for that. This will reduces student's reliance on needing classes to learn materials while at the same time allowing universities to fo

You have no fellowship or sympathy with misogynists because you haven't seen them as human beings. Yes, it's horrible to hate women, but this isn't some random things people decided to just one day do. There's a history

When you're on dating apps, you're competing with million of other men. Before dating apps, you're competing with maybe only a pool of a few hundred. Also, your dating profile is completely impersonal. It list your hobbies, y
