Average person
believes all people suck
Beliefs
- I believe Ultimately, people suck. Whether interpreted as a whole or as individuals, we're pretty crappy beings. Sure we can find LOTS of examples of good things we do, again collectively and individually, and we have certainly made progress over the decades and centuries, but if nothing else the wasted potential in how much better we could be makes humans a failure IMO.
- I believe Driving would be safer if everyone was in a self-driving car, even with today's far from perfected technology. Even "good" drivers are so easily distracted, and IME most people are NOT good drivers.
Questions
- How do you reconcile that with cases where sports have caused issues? I'm thinking the obvious cases of fans having fights over their supported teams, etc.
- Why don't you see an ASI as being a positive thing that would greatly improve our lives, and indeed us? Seems to be an ASI is likely to do alot better than we are.
