Hofstadter's books (such as Surfaces and Essences ) provide a salutary reminder of how distant we are in AI technology in approach to a machine understanding of even ordinary human language expression. For those unfamiliar with his wo

Definition? Do you mean no limits at all up to and immediately prior to birth? I'm not sure you'd get unanimity on that. That implies a few seconds separating legal permission to kill from infanticide.

Yes, but the fact that thirty three of these Murchison amino acids are 'unknown in natural materials other than carbonaceous chondrites' gives pause for thought. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11542462/

Not meaningless if you merely search for something like 'graphical Fahrenheit and Celsius', print out one of the representations of the two scales that appeals and keep it where you can see it for a day or so. Choosing at random I

Stupid? Would you want to apply that to anyone else unable to interpret this finding? I don't think so. What you mean is that you're insufficiently knowledgeable in that domain.

Stop the multiplication of humans sounds authoritarian. Is that how you meant it? A recent experiment along those lines didn't go so well. https://www.npr.org/2021/06/21/1008656293/the-legacy-of-t

Like Mao who said (so the story goes) that it was too early to judge the effects of the French Revolution, perhaps better wait a bit before reaching a conclusion. As a terribly gross generalization perhaps it comes down to pond size. Small

I'm not sure about 'seldom' but what do I know? However the point is taken in that lots of people know this if not the metrics involved but when anyone questions the Establishment, too often the response is 'follow the s

You're just yea-saying. Who defines public good? You and Twitter whoever they are behind the scenes? Clearly there are matters of which we should know nothing. And folk like you will protect us.

Point taken but policy reversal by a national government is a good deal more within the realms of possibility than a successful campaign to get the EU to do the same. Not likely at all in the UK at present but that could change if a faction

Sounds as if you don't approve of that stance. That is not likely to shift given that the Spectator is and has been since 1822, basically & famously, a politically conservative magazine though it frequently publishes articles by co

Aren't those negative impacts on society a matter for government? Basically any company will 'try it on' until it's stopped. And 'stopping' is what governments are about, I used to think. It doesn't seem t

Provided the author <is> constrained by the facts, that's a perfectly reasonable position. If he ignores facts unhelpful to his view he'll be seen through by astute critics.

I think the author does have a point though it clearly doesn't apply to everyone. 'Elitist BS' is rather strong. You take a different view but perhaps you've never studied in a part of the world where books are in short
