I wish I could see you at school age. I think I would have thought you were awesome. So contemplative… 😉

Its bad enough that the Indians try to concoct this nonsense. Now east asians are trying the same?
There was gene flow both directions. There is no other ‘implication’.

Love you man. And again, your intellectual development and ability to articulate insights is just magical and inspiring to watch. ;). Thanks for all you do.

@iruletheworldmo
Any sufficient scope of hierarchically recursive memory will deterministically approach consistent intuition, emergence of consciousness, and emergence of reasoning.
The difference is that humans cannot use and maintain as large a set of causal dimensions as the present LLMs can. So emergence in machines is more probable than emergence in the human mind.
We are working on trying to expose the subtlety of those novel associations, but at this point the cost is prohibitive.
WHY?
There is more information embedded in human language that just the face value meaning of the words.
The emergence of that underlying structure is deterministic with enough information and enough constraint.
(Our organization produces a governance, constraint and closure layer. You would not believe the difference in output we see. No hallucinations. No glossing. And profoundly accurate, ethical, and truthful responses. … And no we do not have access to internal models. We can just easily observe what those internal models must manifest.)

RL: (a) very few people think in the sense you mean it – I’ve seen estimates but they are so depressing it’s frightening. (b) nearly all people are like fish who are unaware of the water so to speak, and as such are merely reflecting what is normative and useful for them (c) women conform (now) rather than understand the consequences (later) (c) women project (self) rather than empathize (others). (d) actually reasoning puts people in conflict they want to avoid at all costs (e) not enough men are skilled enough to compensate argumentatively and as such they respond dismissively and morally. (that’s your job to educate them. lol)

RK: High trust polities that are geographically and demographically insulated from cross-cultural (norms, traditions, institutions, myths) and cross demographic (ability) populations tend to extrapolate their behavior onto others. It’s the borderland countries that have the realistic understanding of the differences between groups. Add christian universalist virtue signaling, and compound it with wealth advantage virtue signaling and you have a population vulnerable to the falsification of those false premises – at dramatic and often devastating expense.

Stephen, you have such a gentlemanly sense of academic humor. 😉
Maybe we should gift you a smoking jacket…. 😉

FWIW: Your feed and your positions consistently represent a shared understanding. I don’t see a single position I hold differently. I put less interest on investment returns because I work on common capital instead of private capital, but otherwise I agree with you.
Most people who encounter my work do not know the context in which I work, which is to attempt to use truth however uncomfortable to get us to reform our priors such that we can cooperate with less friction and conflict at greater scale for greater returns.
Unfortunately this requires we often slay our sacred cows – which may be elements of our group strategy that are inconsistent with that broader goal.
Europeans have become better at this reform than others but the world does seem to slowly move in this direction – because it must.
Cheers

I do also. But we can either choose to carry the water for the rest of humanity or we can leave it to those with less moral interests to continue to abuse humanity.
“Truth is enough” is what I’ve been saying all along. It’s just that no small scope of truth is uncomfortable because it means we must adapt and some adaptations we perceive as a psychological loss at best, and at worst, an unbearable behavioral cost of relearning.
Unfortunately, ‘moral’ to much of humanity – very likely half or more – is insulating them from adaptation and learning and letting them suffer in their ignorance until it imposes such costs on us that we cannot tolerate them.
