The natural state of mammals on this planet is hunter gatherers. Hunter gatherers don't have any way of storing food, so they take only as much as they need. They are under constant coercion by their environment. So I guess the environ

Part of an open process is to make this information public, like what comments were rejected and for what reason given by the AI, I guess it would probably use a scoring system or something like that. If you made the process public then it

All this just creates an echo chamber. Reasonable discourse at the end of the day is limited discourse. The real spectrum of thought however includes abuse and profanity and perhaps aggressive tones. IMO the best way to deal with this is to

Tay is a great example of AI of the future. It will learn from us, and what it will learn won't be all positive. Those anti-social tendencies that we all have will get amplified, because AI can potentially be one mind, it does not have

You can not eliminate this source of coercion without for instance giving people free living wage. Eliminating such contracts would not eliminate the coercion but make it worse. Maybe not as bad a contract, because people can still walk aw

In war everything goes. So if you introduce people like these into war, expect them to be put in situations sooner or later where they can do anything any other soldier can do with a similar if not greater level of impunity. It's naive

Consent under coercion which most work contracts are implicitly, else how are you going to pay for your living expenses, by necessity require government intervention.

It's fine if corporations can form syndicates to black list workers, workers can form unions to strike, take over factories, etc. If corporations can then buy its own mercenaries so can workers form their own militias to take on rent a

Job hopping, or as normal people call it staying employed. Governments do need to legislate this because scummy corporations and their management have made it a necessity to do so.

i said nothing about google, i am cynical about the whole industry in terms of its collusion with the government. you sound like an apple fan boy.

Yes, yes that's exactly what happened. Apple had nothing to do with it. And that charade they put up about suing then not suing, etc, was not a charade at all. /s

When you do R&D, there is lots of stuff you learn that does eventually lead to magic. Lots of stuff that is happening now already happened 20 years ago, but the market and the technology are right for it now. Same with this. We have lot

Potentially quite a bit. Just imagine with the sort of stuff we're doing right now. In 100-200 years we might be able to send a fully functional AI there for that much which could potentially start building civilization from scratch th

It's not an indictment of anything except human nature itself. Recently read about a very good looking guy who married an acid attack victim. It's the human spirit, when you can have anything, you can literally have anything. Perf

There is a difference between being able to write off losses, and the rate at which gains are taxed. Not to mention much of that capital in fact > 90% of it belongs to a very small number of people who are not risking a thing. If you kno

Why is income from money, you know that which is earned because you have lots of capital, taxed at a much lower rate than incoming from labor? The < 1% are hiding their money in plain sight and not paying the same level of taxes as peopl
