    This is a continuation from my other reply. Read the other comment first. Or not, it's rather long. I type fast. >These days I struggle to watch a movie, there are just too many op…

    >You're just arguing some people are afraid of being replaced by AI, new flash? No I'm saying many people are afraid enough such that they organized a law suit against AI. Somethin…

    Nothing wrong with this being on the front page. Just posting this here as a question. Is the reason why this is on the front page because a good number of software engineers addic…

    A child is well aware of the parent-child hierarchy that is more or less universal across all modern cultures. You've been conditioned by this book to follow a fringe belief.

    Be real. You can convince people to read a book without having to copy all 600 pages here. Saying that you're incapable of doing so when every book on the face of the earth has sum…

    No one is obliged to do anything. I am saying your attitude makes it so that other people who haven't read the book are less likely to read it when they read your words. You are ac…

    A 692 page book needs more then "right there" as a reason to plow through it. Just saying.

    My opinion is the status quo of anthropology. Your claiming that the opinion is wrong and not inline with reality? Do you have evidence other then something along the lines of "rea…

    I just started reading this. I'm hopeful but the forward and the first chapter don't look good. First off at least one of the authors is into social justice. Social Justice tenants…

    There's no magic here. There's no claim that chatGPT is useful either. The claim is that chatGPT is a precursor to a technology that will replace many human jobs because it's showi…

    Not from an anthologists perspective. Obviously my perspective is not as in-depth as that. I'm coming from a more general laymans perspective. If you're saying a more detailed anth…

    What is the point of coming onto this thread other then to see if the book is worth reading or not? It's fair to assume a lot of people on this thread haven't read it. I never Deni…

    Hierarchies are places where one relies on many. That is the point of a hierarchy... so that a few can control and rely on many. It is the most unfair way to organize.

    Valid. I will say the article states there were still hierarchical tendencies in the societies and leadership is mentioned in that society. Other then that, How do we know that whe…

    So yes. I was right. everything I'm claiming is opposite of what the book proposes. Perhaps I'll read it. I will say that what I'm "claiming" is what's claimed by academia. It's th…
