When do we get the multi billion dollar tax break though?
I get what you’re saying, in that we should take care of ourselves to have capable bodies and minds. However, consuming as much literature as possible seems like learning by coverage, which is worth examining.
Learning by coverage is usually done in contexts where there’s pressure to learn a lot in very little time. For example, this happens to teachers when they’re expected to teach for a test. But the research on this is clear: teaching by coverage results in disconnected, useless knowledge. It ironically results in abysmal test performance.
So what’s the alternative? Learning for understanding and transfer. When someone learns this way, they perform well in novel tasks. They become experts. They are more creative. They feel the thrill of knowing and being competent.
I take this to mean that we shouldn’t aim for consuming as much literature as possible. I take this to mean that we should aim for understanding and transfer.
Oh interesting i like this line of thought. Though I’m curious, could you elaborate on the specific behaviour for learning for understanding and transfer (as in what does it look like in practice)? I ask this from of a place of associating the behaviour of “cramming for a test”, when i think of the concept of learning by coverage.
AI, actual intelligence
Does this mean I was the antagonist the whole time? But I wanted to do something productive, like spread furry porn to religion folk, or be one of the 14 werewolves who bang you (the protagonist) in the forest that you keep suspiciously ignoring warnings about.
Also this data center shits on cop cars.
If we don’t protect our resources, we will lose them to robots.
