Live Questions:
21:15 I suspect you're right that people will always think in binaries. The way we win is by getting Objectivism to become one of those binaries. Most likely through taking over the Republican party over the next 100 years.
22:18 Do you see a dramatic increase in wages over the next few decades?
22:59 Obviously, Yaron was replaced by an AI, but doesn't have his voice down right. That's the only rational explanation.
23:23 Catching up on the live shows, but wanted to contribute for Sunday’s show on living a moral life in an irrational world
23:48 Did you see Alex Epstein's tweet regarding GPT-4? GPT-3's guardrails suppressed pro-fossil fuel responses (eg for prompts asking for pro-FF arguments), which got attn in Dec, and now GPT-4 has no such bias.
25:12 An abysmal view of man is required to respond to AI with fear that what man will do with it is commit mass murder. But many would claim that it is historically accurate, e.g. using new technology for war. What say you?
26:36 AI will increase productivity, which should make things cheaper for everyone. Also, by allowing us to be more productive, we can probably work less hours, giving us more time to productive in other areas of our lives.
27:33 My daughter-in-law is going to PR in April to help evacuate all the animals and close the PR zoo, because the animals are suffering poor conditions. You want to give us a PR status in a future show?
28:11 Power is not controlling other people. Power is controlling yourself. Trying to control other people is the first sign that you are entirely out of control. Controlling others is what weak people think power looks like.
29:11 Is it immoral to own section 8 housing apartments? In a free society, obviously they wouldn't exist, but at the moment the government pays me every month guaranteed, and I don't have to pay for maintenance on the building.
30:00 The ‘How to Live a Moral Life in an Irrational World’ episode from the weekend was excellent. Amazing life advice. Worth the value of membership alone. Thank you!
31:01 Yaron, did you hear about the restrict act? Its intensely authoritarian to outlaw VPNs. Think it will pass?
31:40 For Grace Under Pressure ...
31:46 New Mic Money.
31:56 Old mic money
31:59 AUSTRALIAN TGA doc release. Submitted Jan 2021 off Pfizer data. Released by FOIA. No info spike degrade/circulation. Potential autoimmune disease noted, no study. Lipid nano in every organ.
32:31 I had a professor challenge me that “saying “free will is self evident because we see it” like saying “the Earth is flat is self evident because we see it”. What is wrong with this analogy?
34:48 NI money. Thanks for making sense!
34:54 Do you know of the Academic Agent(Neema Parvini)? He's a intellectual linchpin for the right. Making a video countering his arguments could sway his less extreme audience. His book: Populist Delusion
35:25 Tips to people on how to keep up with modern tech?
