LimpyLoo Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) how to (dis)solve a currently-Unfriendly Stranger prelude If you'll allow, I'd like to humbly offer some more 'cross-discipline alchemy', in the form of two (old/new, abstract/concrete) strategies when dealing with an (angry and sadistic) Unfriendly Stranger: one Friendly, and one ('smash in case of emergency') Unfriendly. (p.s. if you'd like to [search + replace] "Unfriendly Stranger" with [e.g.] "Fascist", "Neo-Nazi", "pissy neighbor", "Unfriendly AI-in-a-Box (...?)", "monster who just kidnapped me or a loved one or anyone else", "authoritarian goon", "moody barista"...well who is gonna stop you?***...) ***i mean, except for... a) one (possible) Friendly strategy did anybody see Midnight Express? (I friggin' love that movie) okay so, quick aside... our boy Frege had an insanely-useful idea: TL;DR = if you just keep staring at the 'data set' long enough, the answer is always, always hidden in there, somewhere... [but (of course) he offered this idea in the language of 'modal logic', so it sometimes gets lost in translation...] so back to Midnight Express... well, let's see if we can't smash Frege into Midnight Express to maybe spot our hero's 'crossroads' strategy misstep and generate a better strategy: Reveal hidden contents https://youtube.com/watch?v=Epk_OfOAkMo did anyone spot the misstep? (it looks kinda like a giant 'babel monster' has pulled the 'veil of maya' over the eyes of everyone involved, no?) b) has anyone every seen either a police interrogation? or a hostage negotiation? So both of those strategies are based on one very dirty, very Unfriendly trick, borrowed straight from the empirical literature of (e.g. social) psychology: If you and I are talking, And I am convinced that you are exactly like me, And therefor 'on my side' in this whole mess: Reveal hidden contents Well dude, I don't get to talk sincerely about my inner life much with other people, so here goes... And as it turns out: the more hubristic and (thus) lonely I am inside, The more eager I am to open up to you, And thus the weaker my Persona 'shield' ...but there is one major flaw in this Unfriendly strategy: in Barton Fink, John Turturro only got away with it once , Why? Well, because (as you already know) he had a 'fatal credibility gap' cheers, -b P.S. Maybe we should be designing an AI with human-like Hubris Susceptibility built into it...

LimpyLoo Posted February 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) Oops, I overlooked a rather crucial 'hidden hypothesis/assumption': Why do less-than-Friendly (e.g.) politicians always seem to get away with causing the world a huge fucking Bad Time? Hypothesis: because their true intentions always remain implicit, and hidden from the public, no?

We can certainly try to get everyone on the 'same page.' Should we really not try? (Because that sounds like a bummer for everyone involved, yo.)
