Fun fact: average academic research paper has far less utility than an average toilet paper.

Soon, everyone will realize that AI only empowers the super smart, and the mediocre are just cost centers with more garbage output. AI deflation is unavoidable.
Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya said that his software company's AI costs are tripling every 3 months but his revenues are not. bit.ly/4ug6Bso

You are a taker, not a maker. All you’ve done your whole life is take from the makers of the world.
The zero-sum mindset you have is at the root of so much evil. Once you realize that civilization is not zero-sum and that it is about making far more than one consumes, then it becomes obvious that the path to prosperity for all is just let the makers make.
Regarding Tesla, the reality is that I have been given nothing.
However, if I lead Tesla to become the most valuable company in the world by far and it stays that way for 5 years, shareholders voted to award me 12% of what is built. Anyone who wants to come along for the ride can buy Tesla stock.
If Tesla “merely” becomes a $1.999 trillion dollar company, I get nothing. This is a great deal for shareholders, which is why they voted so overwhelmingly to approve this, for which I am immensely grateful.
And they did so by a margin far more than you won your political seat.

My ideas of historic objectivity seem pretty obvious ngl. The idea that each era of history makes mistakes and so you should cross reference different time periods against a universal truth to assess the shared traits or weaknesses. That modernity isn’t just unilaterally correct against previous societies. That historic societies weren’t lying about building their worlds off authentic religious experiences. This all makes total sense and seems obvious. Intuitive.
So why did I have to develop it myself in the 21st century. Probably some other author had it before which I don’t know about. This seems like something the Greeks figured out. Maybe not. Idk. It definitely seems like something we should have understood by the 19th century. Why was it so late?

Intellect is rarely used to make decisions. It is usually used to justify decisions.

You're so lame, intellectually dishonest, and repetitive. You keep hitting them with "I was the best trader in the world, right?".. the NPCs love it.
There’s an invisible threshold for inequality where things break; even a second grader gets that. Pareto outcomes are expected in any competitive process. Want to eliminate inequality or competition? You can only choose one, you dense fuck. Eliminating competition means erasing everything that turned an atom into us. Eliminating inequality means ending competition.
Want to cope about capping competition but not eliminating it? You're an intellectually dishonest clown blinded by ideology and utopia in your hypothetic complex model of maintaining that equilibrium. Exactly the same as the opposite clown that thinks the threshold for inequality doesn't matter.
The reality is that there is no solution for this.

every kid I've met is incredibly smart (12 and below). Every time they tell me they are bad at math, I trick them into learning multiplication and division by asking them questions about whatever they are interested in
Our public school teachers are majority, extreme retards
