RE: REFERENCE: Speculation, Imagination, and Hypothesis... Wonderful and Dangerous
damn you write long post..
whew..
one point.
People can be very uncomfortable, stressed, and frightened when they cannot explain something that comes to their attention.
Consider a frog.
A frog will literally starve to death, even if it's literally up to it's neck in food if the food doesn't act like what it expects food to act like.
To be more specific.. a frog will only eat live flies. A dead fly it ignors...to death.
Same with people.
If people have a poor imagination..they literally can NOT see something which is beyond the scope of their reality...
If they DO see it...they twist it.
Angels, demons, grey aliens....(yadda yadda yadda)..
Yep, you my friend I don't actually will be bothered by what I intend to tackle. Instead you'd be more likely to join in on the attack. :)
My initial target will be on AI and so many of the wild speculations people are treating as reality. Some of their fears are warranted and there is indeed a clear and present danger, but it is not really for the reason they think.
