    Thanks for helping me understand when a person who can’t put themselves in another’s shoes , like someone on the spectrum, would need to resort to using pattern recognition to understand but I see other problems develop when others that could but choose not to step into another’s shoes, for what ever reason , maybe like judging someone or their beliefs that they believe are not worthy of consideration. 😢

    Hey, you should definitely do a podcast with sam harris! Have you had one with him yet?

    great episode! could not agree more with the views you expressed. no surprise that you came up with such an accurate label "intelligence echo illusion" can't wait to use it on an unsuspecting victim! hahaha….
    - a deeper and interesting aspect that the theme of the episode brings to mind are the ancient native american philosophies: the medicine wheel, everything is a mirror, and, in particular, introspection (of the medicine wheel): "the more i know myself the less others will surprise me" (i'm sure there are many other ancient ethnic philosophies that engage in this as well). this topic/episode is one that everyone should be exposed to and hopefully engage with.
    - this episode does lead me to harken back to my episode 58 comment that AI is not "creative"-it is just doing stuff. or the alternative that "creative" is so abstracted that is has lost all higher meaning/value (to me). the question being: must there be "theory of mind" within an entity to be creative? is "bending, breaking, blending" so algorithmic as to be programmable and then people unwittingly apply "creative echo illusion"? hmmm… hahaha. (honestly, you helped me flesh out why i still stand on "AI is not creative".)

    I love this channel but David is that alien when it comes to that life struggle.

    Hmm, interesting but I remain unconvinced. For example, what if some of the people around you were robots who behaved undistinguishably from humans, but on the inside consisted of nothing but mechanics and electronics. By definition, you would be able to anticipate the robots behavior / put yourself in their shoes just the same as with humans. However, this cannot possibly be due to you successfully employing a theory of their mind, since the robots don't have minds. Maybe it's just pattern matching: You and your ancestors have observed beings looking like the robots (i.e. humans) behaving like they behave for a combined millions of years and by now you just got the hang of it. Why could that not also be an explanation?

    Theory of mind - Kindly explain why has the most moronic casts, the most views on youtube. Specifically what? Specifically everything across the board, color creed, causality. That's a whole show there in the making. Conspiracy theory, bread and circus elections, primary and pre's. Critiquing film, music and literature vs art standing alone vs opinion/emotion. Intelligence vs wisdom. Popularity vs Authenticity. When to begin speaking in metaphor and in parable vs numbing the brain on legalized numb numbs. Why do deer Scottish handshake trees and our mainframe buckos bismally fail at baptism rites a passage fonting.
