Before we work on Artificial Intelligence shouldn't we address the problem of natural stupidity.

The issue here is surely that if there is anthropogenic climate change, we aren't really capable of changing our behaviour because of what we are.

... or we are capable of changing our behaviour but too few will and it's too late anyway.

Essentially that's the same thing here, as is covered in the article.

Good man, that Mayer Hillman. He's against cycle helmets, and led the only study of helmets in use on the road (as opposed to laboratory studies), which concluded that they make fuck-all difference to safety. That's why I don't wear one.
I once tried using "chicken" as a password, but was told it must contain a capital so I tried "chickenkiev"
On another occasion, I tried "beefstew", but was told it wasn't stroganoff.
