Nie jest to lekki temat, ale uważam że każdy powinien znać tą historię a w szkołach o tym niestety nie usłyszycie. Ta rolka to oczywiście duże uproszczenie tej historii, ale mam nadzieję że uda mi się kiedyś zrobić dłuższy materiał na ten temat.

I'm seeing a social media trend where people are sneaking pics of men reading books in public and making fun of them as "performative males"
And while I love a good dunk, I don't think you guys want men to be reading even less than they are now. Just saying

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

I will just say it again for those in the back:
Ai is a knowledge killer and an epistemic suicide machine, it is a digital cage meant to silo human creativity and learning. A digital back hole that destroys your cognitive development and ultimately our collective humanity.

i think we underestimate how the combination of engagement-bait social media and cheap sensationalist tv (ancient aliens, etc.) has caused a significant swath of the public to see almost everything as a conspiracy and that’s going to need to be tackled if we’re to have any hope of a better world

mamy już sporo badań naukowych mówiących coś przeciwnego: predyktorem sukcesu politycznego jest umiejętność robienia z ludzi debili. A bardziej precyzyjnie: korzystanie z zasobu politycznego jakim jest odklejenie elektoratu od zbyt skomplikowanej dlań rzeczywistości.

I increasingly wonder whether the AI-critical crowd focuses on the right battles. For example, the emerging crises of mental health and literacy seem to me as more evident, urgent, and impactful than the risks for the environment and labor market, yet they get much less attention

Musk said he'd only do it if the show would appear unedited.
Stewart and the Daily Show agreed -- calling Musk's bluff.
