        No. Harris' title will be "the ultimate housekeeping podcast" while Ezras title will be "Junk pseudoscientist Sam Harris tries to explain his racist views"

        It's shocking to me that Harris holds data (by which he really means analytic results) to be so pure and revealing. 1/

        Science has advanced dramatically, and this has been driven by malevolent scientific actors w/ commercial and ideological conflicts and biases. 2/

        This is why meta-analysis looks for publication bias. This is why selective outcome reporting is combatted with pre-registration. This is why conflict of interest reporting is demanded given that conflicts have demonstrated positive biases. 3/

        Proponents of prayer, homeopathy, pharmaceutical drugs have done research without meaningful Bayesian priors, and have been attempting to game science and the information ecosystem and decision-making ecosystem for decades. 4/

        And so though Harris wants us to separate the data from its uses this is actually an impossible task because their generation and analytic and publication choices are tied to real people who have real goals (academic or otherwise). 5/

        The concerns you outline are always present. But then you actually need to show where a given bias or agenda is tainting the data, and how, in a given study. Blanketed statements of relativist fears don't undermine anything. The data in question HAS survived scrutiny of peers.

        The interpretation of significant biological racial differences in intelligence is not consensus science. And the over-interpretation of this claim as strong science is a sign of biases that call into question the whole project.

        I had a love/hate relationship with the podcast. Sam would make a great point and I'd be happy. Omer would quickly roll right over it and change the subject and I'd want to run through a fucking wall.

        Perhaps this conversation will illuminate the fact that IQ doesn't determine true intelligence. Without an objective definition of intelligence + accurate adjustments to account for nurture (environment, socioeconomic, psychological factors), IQ tests will always fall short.

        IQ is highly correlated with “true intelligence” which itself is not a texhnical term. IQ also correlates with several important outcomes like ability to acquire new info, make sound decisions, and job performance for most jobs

        See, i know next to nothing about the subject, but if you practice IQ tests don't you get better at them?

        Of course. Practicing anything will make you better at it. What does this tell you...

        But just like many things, people with more natural ability will excel faster than those without.

        kindly add the implied "given the same level of practice" to the end of my previous statement.
