        .@SamHarrisOrg Not if we do this right! Our culture knows that real education is not done with sticks. Nor imposes blind adherence to rules.

        .@SamHarrisOrg Admittedly it doesn't know it thoroughly or confidently enough. That is therefore the priority for avoiding an AI apocalypse.

        @SamHarrisOrg Robots don't get frustrated. Knock the box away 1000x. It's all the same to them. You're anthropomorphizing them.

        @n8r0n74 @SamHarrisOrg Exactly. They only by definition have the intuitions, 'emotions,' and core preferences we program them with.

        @n8r0n74 They'll need a really well manufactured function for differentiating between fiction and nonfiction.
