@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch Nah I want intelligence upgrading, very badly. Just not optimistic that it will magic away these political probs. -
@simplic10@GrumplessGrinch So pursue those deltas and let the future decide what to do next. Far orientation is a trap. -
@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch To be explicit: hard for ppl to regard others 1 or 2 IQ stdevs below them as anything but NPCs. That's true *now*. -
@simplic10@GrumplessGrinch I'd argue 1) it will be easier to identify defects and correct them than improve on the right tail -
@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch yeah, that's a good point. -
@simplic10@GrumplessGrinch And it's a very, very bad argument--cognitively easy to make, superficially appealing, and contrary to evidence. -
@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch True but eg medicine is not quite as self-reinforcing as intel amplification could be. -
@simplic10@GrumplessGrinch also "might" "could" stop it stop it stop it - 1 more reply
