Keith Duggar: preference

Transcript context

…The paper gives this garbage representation a formal name, a fractured, entangled representation. It argues that concepts which should be unified are fractured and discombobulated into overlapping pieces, and behaviors which should be independent become entangled. It is, in essence, the difference between a deeper understanding and elaborate memorization. I can give you a personal example of that. So in high school, when I went to sign up for physics, for physics 1, they put me in the 1 that was for people who had not had calculus. And I had had calculus. Right? And so I'm in this class and I'm like, what the heck are we doing? We're just memorizing all these, like, long list of equations, you know, for a cannonball in this situation. And they're like, oh, actually, we put you in the wrong class. You have calculus. You're supposed to be over here. So after a week, I switched to the other 1. It was so much easier because I knew calculus. So I I didn't need to have a formula for this specific cannonball situation. I just could derive it or just calculate it correctly. You know, it's radically different different learning mode. This distinction is really important, basically, intelligence can only replicate what it seemed versus 1 which can go on to create something new.…
