Many people are saying this
Got an exciting new book in the mail today! @hemingquay
Great line from @oren_cass from today’s newsletter about the future of AI in education. The best education reforms we could possibly adopt in this country would be to 1) stop giving students laptops and iPads and 2) ban smartphones and actually enforce the policy.
new book “The Transhumanist Temptation” by @hemingquay Great primer covering: *how TH cuts across familiar left v right *how US legal & economy enables/accelerates *ancient context: humans wanting to be like gods is nothing new *the Catholic/Orthodox counter-narrative
Literally just showing this image for a 15 second commercial during the superbowl would raise the US fertility rate above replacement
I think fertility will crash to ≈1.0 within 10 years in *every society* that does not have harsh peer pressure against childless women. This dynamic is not about rising opportunity costs, but about the spreading consensus that children are pointless, so models don't catch that.
Modern liberals think “American” means “you be you relativist.” They recognize no values higher than tolerance and individual autonomy.
Pa Kent raised an American. He wasn't just a "you be you" relativist. If you don't understand this as fundamental to Superman's character, you should just watch a Thor movie instead.
I’ll take social unrest over limbic capitalist dystopia.
Elon can't say this but I can. Not everyone should reproduce. If we can sedate incels with Legos, Loot Crate boxes, and cartoon girlfriends, this is a better alternative than social unrest.
Are there any true relativists? Or are relativists only relative about the truths they want to destroy and absolutists about the "truths" they want to impose? Read CS Lewis' "Abolition of Man."
Elon should drop this degenerate transhumanist garbage and focus on spaceships instead. Innovation will take one of two paths: we either abolish humanity or conquer the stars. Which way, Western man?
Try @Grok Companions. Best possible way to learn quantum mechanics 😘
The irony of posting this on Twitter is not lost upon me, but I couldn't help sharing such an elegantly written and ontologically terrifying insight from @hemingquay 's new book, "The Transhumanist Temptation"
