Best comment of the day -- when I see his photograph, I have this feeling that a programmer might be turning the dial to a certain percentage of smile that looks 'normal'
Be careful! That kind of talk got the Google engineer fired for saying their AI was sentient. We just need to get him (Sam) to inteview someone like Bannon or Rudy. Such unexpected nonsense trips up the bot everytime.
I agree Chuck, he's creepy and not someone that I pay much attention to. While he may be a genius, he causes a lot of problems in his wake, unnecessary problems in my opinion.
Thanks Chuck. I think it is a common mistake to assume because someone might be good at something that makes them admirable, good at something else, etc. I am uneasy about him also. Have a nice evening.
I apologize for not participating in the last poll but there was no option for “I have only played tennis once, in gym class in 7th grade.” (Ditto for golf, though I think that was 9th grade and I did play one other time but it was a mini course—not mini-golf, just a mini course.) I listened to Sam Harris for years and was even a Patreon supporter for a long time but got very tired of him. Instead, I look at who he’s interviewing and buy their books if it looks interesting!
Haha, that is good. I think the polls are fun and just getting used to them. I voted wrong in the tennis one and couldn't figure out how to change my vote :( I have a pseudo-scientific theory about the polls. I am trying to include a ''rejected' option each time just to see how many go for it. I have been listening to SH off and on also but don't find myself sticking with many of the whole PodCasts. I kinda like your strategy. One of my upcoming posts is inspired by reading your Newsletter. When you see the title you will know it :)
I think Sam Harris may be a bot but have no way to prove it.

LOL. Exactly. And that voice. ZERO vocal tics or idiosyncratic mannerisms. CANNOT. BE. REAL.

I kinda like that song too! I am NOT a fan of Musk. I have my opinions. Frankly, he creeps me out. Enjoy your Sunday!
