... In popular media, there is often a connection drawn between the advent of awareness in artificial agents and those same agents simultaneously achieving human or superhuman level intelligence. ...
... We find that all three theories specifically relate conscious function to some aspect of domain-general intelligence in humans. ...
... Given this apparent trend, we use the motivating example of mental time travel in humans to propose ways in which insights from each of the three theories may be combined into a unified model. ...

... But it isn't 3/ For the most part, taming inflation is now up to the Fed, and there's no hint that this administration (unlike Trump's!) will try to deter the Fed from raising rates if it chooses. ...

... There's a widespread view in inflation hawk circles that the BLS came under political pressure (in the 1990s and maybe before) to modify the CPI to reduced the measured inflation rate and hence reduce how much the government would have to pay in Social Security benefits. ...
... The CPI, the one used for adjusting Social Security benefits, tends to come in higher than the PCE index. Right now, for example, PCE inflation is 5.7 percent while CPI inflation is 7 percent. ...
... So if Newt Gingrich forced the BLS to lower the CPI as a backdoor way of cutting Social Security payments, did he force the BEA to do the same thing so it wouldn't look suspicious? ...

... This @JosephPolitano writeup is invaluable for understanding how this works. https://t.co/mmlaHCOVYW https://t.co/xtCyVhGzZl The use of OER to measure housing costs strikes a lot of people as goofy when they first hear about it. ...
... You could survey homeowners on their mortgage payments, but then would you price it based on the mortgages people actually pay (which would include people who bought homes 20 years ago and therefore have tiny payments) or what they would pay if they bought their house now? ...

... I'm reading @mattyglesias and thinking that bubble-phobia was a major factor behind the bad economic performance of the Bush and Obama years. https://t.co/p8zhQAIA2D https://t.co/xBi4kjjAXK In the early 2000s, people exaggerated the frothiness of the tech bubble and the harms from its crash. ...
... When a sluggish recovery finally started to gain steam in 2004-5, triggering a housing boom, people once again over-estimated its frothiness. This bubble frame caused the Fed to react too slowly to the onset of the Great Recession from December 2007 to September 2008. ...
... Then the idea that 1999 and 2006 were driven by unsustainable bubbles, as opposed to just being healthy economic booms, prevented people from recognizing how far the US economy was below potential from 2010 to 2015. ...
... People in the early 2010s assumed we had to live with a permanently shitty economy to avoid having more bubbles. But now we know that was wrong. The economy was still way below potential in 2015, and it's possible to recover rapidly from a recession with appropriate macro policy. ...

... We can understand it through biology, evolutionary theories, social science. Almost every aspects of human behavior can be explained with the internal logic discovered by these scientific studies. ...
... It's only when we truly understand the origin of these behaviors, then we can possibly make some choices in deciding the meaning of being human. ...
