A native English-speaking HNer doesn't know their MBTI letters?

Well if that's not a typical young Korean, then who is?

Younger generations are now heavily into MBTI. And I mean heavily: you won't find a person under 35 or so who doesn't know their MBTI letters.

> Elon is not a generous guy

Why would he be?

I wouldn't dare say that to a colleague or friend, because although they might appear to take it well, I don't think I'd be doing our relationship any favors. I'd step out with an excuse instead.

But given my lifestyle, I almost never have to be around anybody who's eating, except in contexts in which I can't hear them eating (busy brunch, say).

A lot of them are autistic and they enjoy applying their version of "order" to a chaotic system.

The overlap between subreddit moderators and Dungeons & Dragons moderators is probably quite high.

Also Marc Zuckerberg: "I notice Elon and Trump are 2 weeks away from running the primary government to which I'm more or less answerable... better batten down the hatches"

Unfalsifiable does not mean pseudoscientific. Plenty of things might be unfalsifiable for humans (e.g. humans lack the cognitive capacity to conceive of ways to falsify them), but then easily falsifiable for whatever comes after humans.

> Public confidence in scientists fell from 87 percent in April 2000 to a low of 73 percent in October 2023

It's incredible public confidence in scientists is still that high.

When the public turned to scientists with valid questions, they were met with "just trust me bro" and mockery for "doing your own research" in response to being dismissed.

Even worse: the "just trust me bro" people kept being wrong about one thing after another, then pretending a year later the opposite position was their position all along.

The general public isn't smart, but most people can remember life-and-death information they were given a year back.

> They just gave patients a seemingly random score that nobody understood, on a scale of one to infinity.

I mean obviously it's broken UX and/or poor architecture overall. That's not an AI-creep problem.

Takeaway: Bad AI is bad. Good AI is good.

We're perhaps middling at diagnosing neurology issues and we're terrible at treating them. Absolutely useless. If we haven't moved the needle in the last 50 years, then let's try to use AI to do it.

There'll be casualties along the way, but it's a lot better than being stuck in the dark ages blindly trying to repair neurological problems with stone knives and bearskins for another 3 generations.

No, not at all like incels or MGTOW. When women do it it's stunning and brave. It's a protest for what's right.

When men do it it's cowardly and needy, a result of being so unworthy that no reasonable person would want to be around them.

And this regularly happens with humans too

> On nine of the occasions that Bryde’s whales turned up, the researchers also heard the biotwang. “Once, it’s a coincidence,” Allen says. “Twice is happenstance. Nine times, it’s definitely a Bryde’s whale.”
