With all due respect, you are indoctrinated into a culture of lies meant to confuse you into thinking you aren't special, likely to prevent you from negotiating or escaping. We can't expect everyone to be athletes or bodybuilders.

School is a waste of time and resources for the talented these days. You can learn anything you want online by the best people. It's becoming training for state-run communism. No choice, only negative reward signals, march at the sam

Good on these employees. Now go work somewhere or start something that gives you ownership and control of what you work on. This is likely a result of massive corporate/government entanglement. Google can't say no. Their stock

I think Hyperbitcoinization was avoided with alts. The pressure to outcompete bitcoin prevents a lot of hoarding.

These are all half-truths meant to avoid the real answer. They want high IQ ambitious people who don't suffer from mental illness. They will put you through strenuous interview processes as a makeshift filter for high IQ. No technica

What's up with the hoarding and secrecy of medical data? It's real possibility that AI starts to work and solves all diseases in the next few decades. Maybe that's the point? To horde life-extension and immortality inventi

Anti free market hit piece disguised as an article using questionable interpretation of history. This is propaganda for the middle and upper class.

I don't disagree with a gap that needs to be overcome. I just think that the exponential nature of technology will cross it quickly. Evolution is amazing but it doesn't optimize directly for intelligence.

I'm more hopeful that narrow ai can be the same thing as strong ai with a few theory breakthroughs, increases in model capacity and metacognition.

Typical politics. Increase the costs of building homes in a housing poor area while claiming to help the environment. The increased new development costs is likely the entire motivation(i.e. market manipulation).

I'm more curious how the sporadic economy and capital flight will hit our existing centralized structures. They haven't been load tested against hyper-liquidity of cryptocurrency with mass adoption.

I'm pretty close. Invest well and create passive income/royalties. You would be shocked at the passive income you can have in your 30s if you actually get to keep some of the stuff you build.
