Should we guess?
Julia Galef strongly agrees and says:
We should be bold enough to venture guesses, expressed clearly enough such that it’s easy for someone else, or the universe, to prove us wrong. In the long run, I think this policy leads to much better models — and better thinkers — than the policy of trying to minimize our error in the short run. source Unverified -
Should we find disagreements interesting?
Julia Galef strongly agrees and says:
Disagreements are interesting. When thoughtful people with access to the same information reach very different conclusions from each other, we should be curious about why. I think we tend to be incurious about this simply because it’s so common that we’re used to it. source Unverified
