does yudkowsky not realize that humans can also be significantly improved by mere communication? the point of jcannell’s posts on energy efficiency is that cells are a good substrate actually, and the level of communication needed to help humans foom is actually in fact mostly communication. we actually have a lot more RAM than it seems like we do, if we could distill ourselves more efficiently! the interference patterns of real concepts fit better in the same brain the more intelligently explained they are—intelligent speech is speech which augments the user’s intelligence, iq helps people come up with it by default, but effective iq goes up with pretraining.
