The Nobel Peace Prize is meaningless. No matter who or why and to whome it was given. It has nothing to do with the other Nobel Prizes.

neo-nazis like old-nazis were always anti-Zionism.
"Calling it "intelligent" is irresponsible." How so ?

If a human of animal behaving the same were to be describe as intelligent, than so are those systems.

And those aren't sophisticated interpolation ?
And true intelligence can get data they don't have ? true intelligence isn't magic.

"Who cares!" Most people ?

Its the content of the book that matters, not how or who made it.

The human behind the pages is a nessecery evil to get to the book, same as food or furniture.

Not seeking a reason beyond the obvious IS what the concept of Laziness means, so its not rare at all. When you don't care if there is a reason for not doing something, you call it Laziness.

Inborn psychology , growing up psychology , created and acquired conception ; together get a certain preception.

If you have the wrong Inborn psychology , growing up psychology , created and acquired conception ; you are maximaly far from the true.

If you have the right Inborn psychology , growing up psychology , created and acquired conception ; you are maximaly near the true , so the truth is obvious.

Since not everyone have the same right Inborn psychology , growing up psychology , created and acquired conception ; than the truth isn't obvious to theem.
