Likewise, people don't as easily blame ilya for 'hyping things up' when he said these things.

Also talk about incentives, there are also incentives to lower their valuation. If you wanna be vigilant against social engineering i'd be wary of that too.

These are moot anyway though cause the article isnt even making any super strong claim. If you read it it's no big deal

Also why pay anyone, when they can keep up with all the papers that not one man can read them all? That seems to me like wasted money.

Another point is that that's not how AI training works anyway. It's much easier to put it in context rather than re-train them with every bit of random maths you find out. Things at the tail-end of the power law doesn't stick. At least, last I checked...

Defending can be done very efficiently with modern weaponry.

And Taiwan is more powerful than Ukraine potentially and more economically important.

Actually you know what can cause big personality change? A good plastic surgery/facial correction. I heard it's actually one of the few things that can do that. And a positive one, too; towards more confidence and extrovertedness (if you think it's 'positive'), a trait most psychologists considered fixed in any other cases. But I can't find the source right now, or if I even heard it. But it makes perfect sense to me. Like a good jaw realignment that fixed your whole face, blaw, suddenly you're this other person.

Anyway, your whole world being inside your mind is self-evident to me. That is what the superego is, partly. An integrity model/simulacrum of the outside world. We have it so we can run simulations and outcomes without actually being 'reported' and judged in reality.

Anyway, i thought it is interesting. My theory is that psychedelics allow us to update these integrity models which usually maintains its integrity by being outside of our control. Since it's usually lagging behind our developing worldview and needs.

And advocating for yourself is just doomed to fail. But that doesn't mean you don't have a voice. You do, for others; due to the nature of how advocating works.

Regarding the lack of feedback, maybe grade was sufficient. Sometimes enough is best.

I feel like whats most important in teaching is that the teacher has integrity. If you can control the teacher in any way, that loses the dynamic. In fact, his idiosyncratic method might indirectly increased his integrity score, which we subconsciously evaluate on teachers before we allow ourselves to engage.
