Janelle Shane
“One problem is that platforms like YouTube, as well as Facebook and Twitter, derive their income from clicks and viewing time, not from user enjoyment. So an AI that sucks people into addictive conspiracy-theory vortexes may be optimizing correctly, at least as far as its corporation is concerned. Without some form of moral oversight, corporations can sometimes act like AIs with faulty reward functions.”
Janelle Shane, You Look Like a Thing and I Love You: How Artificial Intelligence Works and Why It's Making the World a Weirder Place

Mehdi Hasan
“Consider this: when you’re trying to change someone’s feelings or attitudes, your words account for just 7 percent of your overall message. Seven percent. That’s it. In contrast, your tone of voice accounts for 38 percent of it, and your body language accounts for a colossal 55 percent. This is the famous 7-38-55 rule, or concept, which Albert Mehrabian, a professor emeritus of psychology at the University of California, came up with in 1971 in his book Silent Messages.”
Mehdi Hasan, Win Every Argument: The Art of Debating, Persuading, and Public Speaking

Tim Harford
“Neuroscientific studies suggest that the brain responds in much the same anxious way to facts that threaten our preconceptions as it does to wild animals that threaten our lives.”
Tim Harford, The Data Detective: Ten Easy Rules to Make Sense of Statistics

Mehdi Hasan
“If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they’ll kill you.”
Mehdi Hasan, Win Every Argument: The Art of Debating, Persuading, and Public Speaking

“There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics,”
Alberto Cairo, How Charts Lie: Getting Smarter about Visual Information
