Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

If we're healthy, there's nothing negative to say about our health, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

If we have health problems, there's a lot to say, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

And it's emotion that pushes us towards the goodness that I think makes all the meaning for us.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

I mean, it's interesting.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

I actually was wondering your thoughts about this as a scientist, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

Because we accept it by and large that we have free will, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

We think we have free will, but then we get upset that there's not justice,

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

But how is it like if we have free will, I could act in an unjust way and then you're surprised or vice versa?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

Why?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

We have these thoughts because I think because we're rooted.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

We want logic to rule.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

There's a way in which I can understand logic.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

I can manage it.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

I can manipulate it.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

We sort of want it to be that way.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

So then we glorify logic.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

logic, and then we misapply it.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

Like ideas like, oh, I know we have free will, but I'm now shaking my fist at the heavens because there's no justice, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#357 – Paul Conti: Narcissism, Sociopathy, Envy, and the Nature of Good and Evil

And I think maybe what we're looking for is we should go back and look at the givens.
