Scott Adams

fact i can tell you many artists famous ones that you may recognize definitely know how to do that it is a connection to your consciousness without using substances you know um and

I use it quite often.

I don't have a secretary and steel balls and pie plates, but I got a recorder.

And so that's what the human mind is capable of.

And I digress into this because I want to tell you guys that you have abilities you don't realize.

And that's what Scott was telling us, right?

We have latent abilities that we...

We turn the volume down on, oh, that instinct, it's stupid.

That reaction, it doesn't make sense.

And it's like, in this AI world, it might be all you have, right?

Because you're not gonna beat the AI

intelligence.

over this next decade and a half is what really what is intelligence how do we identify alien intelligence for example right would we know alien intelligence if it came up to us and and i i would give you a thought experiment if i was an ant i would think everything in ant world terms we're humans and we think in human world terms intelligence to us

300 years ago looked radically different than intelligence to us today.

So we are highly anthropomorphized in understanding intelligence.

And we shouldn't beat ourselves up over it.

We're the fish in a fishbowl.

But you have to be open to be a child and be creative and to be able to say, look, mom, the cloud is a dog, right?

And

This means that you have to have ancillary thinking.
