    Individuality is a pretty useful meme. It does have one significant shadow though, and that is the idea that we always need to be individuals, expressed through opinions, goals, desires. Sometimes there is great value in having none of your own and just going along with the team.

    I say most useful because it's saved more lives than any other AI I can think of - though I'm quite open to being corrected on this.

    This is because AI is thought of by laypeople as a recent phenomenon and by programmers today as mainly machine learning. Good Old-fashioned Artificial Intelligence (GOFAI), which is what Airplane Autopilot is, doesn't count.

    Weird to think that one of the most useful AIs ever invented, Airplane Autopilot, probably isn't thought of as AI by most people.

    Intuition to her means something like 'heart thinking'. She agrees with me that conscious processing is only a tiny part of our experience. Where are others on this?

    I generally refer to all unconscious processing as intuitive. My partner keeps stopping me because to her there are many different types of unconscious, intuitive is just one of them. Automatic, reflexes/instincts, body awareness and gut feelings are some of the others.

    I'm shocked, shocked I say, to discover that wealth redistribution reduces inequality.

    Water trickles down. That’s how come you get pools and lakes and oceans. So just look at where all the water is and you can work out the direction of the trickle. Same with money. Oh. Wait.

    GPS. The internet. Digital image sensors. Touch screens. Many vaccines. DNA sequencing. Water purification tech. Protein data bank. Incredible amounts of basic science research in every field.

    I'm gonna go out on a limb here (not that much of a limb) and say that the US government has done more for human progress than any other individual, group, organisation, institution or government anywhere in the world at any time in human history until this point.

    This is huge, huge news. Today, the Netherlands Supreme Court ruled that radical emissions reductions — 25% by the end of 2020 — are *mandatory*. This is the first time in the world that a citizens-led lawsuit has found a legal duty to prevent climate change.
