Elon Plan selectively breeding white people until they make Anti-Yakub and then in a cruel twist of fate Anti-Yakub invents black people. Truly, time is a flat circle.
He's right. This is why White Gladis is perhaps the smartest military leader of our times. Her brain is 4.5x more massive than a mere human's. Long live the joint dictatorship of the proletariat of oppressed marine ecosystems!
Guarantee this dude heard the word "assortative" in the last 24 hours.
You know how in the Big Lebowski the character "The Dude" says things that he just heard to other people to sound like he knows what's going on? And you're supposed to laugh at it because its funny when he tries to half ass explain something somebody else told him? That's Elon. Except with none of the chill. Or friends. Or day drunk grace. Or imagination. But he does share one aspect. As Walter says in the film, "Dude, you don't have a wife."
Let's say it's true humans will be "dumber than house cats compared to AI" does he really think selective breeding (which takes generations) will increase intelligence at a fast enough rate for humans to keep up given how quickly he thinks AI is advancing?
Even on his own terms this doesn't make any fucking sense.
He can't decide which side in the butlerian jihad he wants to join so he's playing both sides so he always comes out on top. Very normal brain genius this guy.
I actually don’t hate Musk as much as some billionaires, but only because he’s such a dumbass it feels like he’s less dangerous than someone like Robert Mercer.
The quiet person is always the dangerous one. Add to that the old proverb that says "beware an old man in a younger man's trade." With Musk's public actions and drug abuse even his money might not let him live as long as he'd like. Meanwhile the Koch Bros chugged along for eons leaving misery in their wake.
Genetic determinists think that a couple generations of PMC people marrying other PMC people will produce a new subspecies or some shit. Like bruv even ignoring how that's not really happening the way you think it is it takes a lot more than that.
Isn't there some evolutionary pressure, and it could be that it applies to primates in general and not just humans, for big-headedness? Like if big-headedness didn't help, then you could imagine two populations, A and B, where A has big heads and B doesn't. B loses fewer mothers during childbirth. Those mothers can then give birth more times, making B grow faster than A, so after enough time, we're all medium-head B-people. But somehow we ended up with me not being able to hold my head up in baby pictures. What gives?
