amoral

Well that's true then! A nice quote is from Feynman in regards to scientific research.

"To every man is given the key to the gates of heaven; the same key opens the gates of hell. — Richard Feynman "

We really have no idea yet how this AI research will play out.

I don't quite like the line "Delegitimize all that makes people unique and special" But that's my only real disagreement.

Removing actual firm discipline for all the young boys has been a disaster.

We replaced strict and perhaps unpleasant discipline in favor of medicine, and its worse long term side effect profile.

My personal hypothesis for the reason why Magnus Carlsen is the youngest chess champion of all time is that with the rise of online battles and computer battles, the age where the blend of crystalized intelligence and working intelligence combines lowers.

This has obvious implications for the recent rise of machines immediately correcting human mistakes in mathematics and physics.

I don't think this comment should be so shouted down. Besides the politeness that typically comes with these events, it does feel strange to congratulate, on top of normal politeness, Se-dol's victory.

And for a game that was thought to be many decades away in terms of computer capabilities, this probably should be a time to think of the possible consequences of AI improvement and take a close look at it.
