All of these men would have made more of a difference and reduced their own wealth more if they'd supported a land value tax and the restructuring of capitalist economics to it's true form of laborers creating an increase in wealth due to labor, and having wages derived from said labor by estimating their personal effort and the increase in capital that comes from it.
Instead we have men who owned more of the economy than Bezos and Musk giving out a pittance to help the poor when they're the source of the problem with their pseudo-capitalism "trickle up" economics.
Fix the issue, rich people giving away 1% of their wealth isn't a solution when the problem is the system that allows for them by taxing the wrong people on the wrong items. Eliminate all taxes and institute the LVT so the middle class doesn't have to keep shouldering the burden that the rich should have an equal share of.
To make the analogy actually comparable the human in question would need to be learning about it for the first time (which is analogous to the training data) and in that case you absolutely could convince the small child of that. Not only would they believe it if told enough times by an authority figure, you could convince them that the colors we see are different as well, or something along the lines of giving them bad data.
A fully trained AI will tell you that you're wrong if you told it the sky was orange, it's not going to just believe you and start claiming it to everyone else it interacts with. It's been trained to know the sky is blue and won't deviate from that outside of having its training data modified. Which is like brainwashing an adult human, in which case yeah you absolutely could have them convinced the sky is orange. We've got plenty of information on gaslighting, high control group and POW psychology to back that up too.
Yeah I studied CS and work in IT Ops, I'm not claiming this shit is Cortana from Halo, but it's also not NFTs. If you can't see the value you haven't used it for anything serious, cause it's taking jobs left and right.
They really glossed over that in later episodes tbh, would have been nice if for the last part of the season he was really struggling to do his job because the lifetime he spent in mind prison made his skillset fall apart or just his inability to connect with people he cared about affects him for longer than the following episode.
People who don't understand or use AI think it's less capable than it is and claim it's not AGI (which no one else was saying anyways) and try to make it seem like it's less valuable because it's "just using datasets to extrapolate, it doesn't actually think."
Guess what you're doing right now when you "think" about something? That's right, you're calling up the thousands of experiences that make up your "training data" and using it to extrapolate on what actions you should take based on said data.
You know how to parallel park because you've assimilated road laws, your muscle memory, and the knowledge of your cars wheelbase into a single action. AI just doesn't have sapience and therefore cannot act without input, but the process it does things with is functionally similar to how we make decisions, the difference is the training data gets input within seconds as opposed to being built over a lifetime.
Shouldn't be forgetting for one off scripts either, if that's the logic you want to go with.
The tool exists, either you do it or you don't and end up getting an error until the interpreter hits that line. It's just the nature of being compiled at runtime.
Wouldn't want Gamefreak to deviate from the same formulas they've had for decades and have never bothered to change, while putting out worse and worse quality games every year.
Pascal's wager doesn't even attempt to make a philosophical argument for God's existence, and it only works if you assume a singular god. Of course in this case it's Christianity.
So let's say someone agrees that it's better to worship a god on the off chance they exist than to not do so and end up in hell, now what? Where do I go from here? You've opened up a can of worms because now I have to decide what the logical choice is (since PW only relies purely on logic) in which god to choose.
The "logical choice" only works when you have a singular alternative, but if you have a dozen different gods to choose from then everything falls apart. The only logical thing to do is to worship the god with the worst hell, on the off chance that they are the one true God. At least you spared yourself from that.
In the end though the wager essentially only sees/works with atheism and one religion, which is why it's so flawed. The moment you introduce multiple religions to a coin toss logic scenario it fails to work.
The fuck it is, if 8 years is enough for the president it's enough for Congress, Senators, and the SC Justices.
If we can pass down the office of president every 8 years there's no reason we can't do the same elsewhere, does it take a decade to learn how to vote or something? Are we lacking in judges?
There are other levels of office, there isn't going to be a shortage of experience just because we require term limits. Even if there was I'd prefer an inexperienced person than someone who sits on their hands all day and just votes according to their oligarchical masters whims.
The issue isn't lack of experience, it's that never having to worry about losing the job makes them useless. Watch how fast they get shit done that directly affects them, it was never about lack of ability, the current politicians are just intentionally useless because they all benefit from the status remaining quo.
