amazing.

Even the Indian coolies who went to Kenya are doing better than native Kenyan people. Our culture is one dimensional and focuses only on education. This is the reason why Indians lack in other aspects.

Tamil DNA. The culture of the South indians and the culture of the north indians are vastly different.She failed to make this point probably because she is a north indian.

Going through anti-fragile right now, first heard it recommended by Pavel Tsatsouline...great resource for strength and conditioning and a great guy, but he was incredibly stoked on Taleb. A few questions...as this is my general introduction to economics, the market, "theory," etc. What are some other texts to look into? I was an English Literature major, and have a major disdain for "the middle" in all it's form, be it in cinema, in literature, etc. Looking into finance or psycology texts, everything seems to be the midwit approach, very basic...reiterates the same point, and banks on the consumer never finding answers; its masturbatory in all it's forms. This fits in with the bimodal approach, and I was suprised to finally have a word for consuming the intuitive tastless texts and also the academic theoretic takes in a ratio that works and allows productive reading and understanding. Anyone have any tips on texts that go deeper than a basic midwit normie take on these subjects? Appreciate the interview dude, taleb is the man

It's a scam advance study is a scam

She is just an ABCD🤷🏻‍♂️

A bit fluffy. Sorry to say

For some reason I have a disconnect with her theory.

I disagree with this statement.. I or most Indians atleast the middle aged population dont treat chauffeurs, butlers or servants with less respect.. in fact we support these families who we are taking work from, to a certain extent financially too.. basically we are a lot more democratic in accepting people of other religions and other communities.. and treat everyone with proper respect and sincerity in our answers and responses.. thats it!!!

She is making a mockery of American family values and u guys are welcoming it

😂😂😂 ..half baked...

What is South Asia!? Its Indian subcontinent my friend

Macaulay actually made Indian student mediocre

There is merit required . If you call merit as selecting the cream . You need to see a psychiatrist . This is also only true of Hindus both rich and poor who value education to give them a better life , rather than play victim. She is talking like a coconut , BROWN OUTSIDE WHITE INSIDE

Are These indians Benefits india or USA??? 😂 Not like chinese,korean or japanese Brilliant minds Who Study in USA then go to their Respective countries And Benefit them and not USA.

All I can hear is just mumbling. I can't even understand what is he talking about

I see speculations rather than evidence. Smart hardworking and they don't make investors or top management angry, thats why they get top job.

It is not Indian but Tamild

The Pune us in India give galis to workers

Indians will of God take over the world as they once did and all others should respect them because they are not bullies, hypocrites, looters, plunderers or murderers.

Most of them are dick ceos carrying same work culture from India

The moment she used the term South Asia instead of Indian subcontinent while talking about india is something they lost in space

Fascinating.

These "indian experts " are ridiculous . Yes macaulay must be credited with creating Satya Nadella , thats one of the stupidest things ive ever heard.

I would add the patriarchy culture, as an Indian man you can solely focus on your career. Your parents will find a girl to marry and she’s will take care of all household responsibilities .

I don't agree with her analysis. Success in tech is largely due to the fact that Indians in top positions come from prestigious universities in India. The selection process to get into these universities is as competitive, if not more so, than MIT, given India's large population. Graduating from a top Indian university in India is like being the "Top Gun" of the STEM world. Regarding Shruti's analysis that Indians in India learn to speak differently to various people from an early age, that's very true. I witnessed it during my recent trip to India. If you're a laborer or junior employee, you're often treated poorly and talked down to. It's dehumanizing, similar to the caste system. You don't stand next to your boss or shake hands; you walk behind them and bow. This behavior would never fly in the U.S., where everyone is treated equally. Even drivers and janitors receive respect and can dine at the same restaurants as wealthy individuals. Unfortunately, this is not the case in India. The biggest difference in the U.S. is our desegregated public school system. In India, it's not like that. In rural villages even today, kids from lower castes will sit on one side of the room or away from kids from upper castes. This code is ingrained in children from a very early age so they know where they belong. It's similar to how it was for Black Americans in the U.S. before desegregation. Then there's regionalism. It's well-known that in U.S. tech firms run by Indians, there is a preference for hiring Indians from their own regions. There's significant rivalry between Indians from different parts of the country, and it's even more pronounced when it comes to those of Indian heritage but not from India. In many cases, Indians from India may not hire Indian Americans or Indians from other countries. I would never want to work for an Indian CEO from India who's firm in US is mostly made up of Indians from India. It will be like in the Military, remember your rank and shut up, do as told.

Coz Indian CEOs are CHEAPer . That's 70% reason .

so harvard and stanford don't select the 'cream' of americans. i think this lady has a narcissist complex

It's because only the top 1% of Indians are able to get a Green card. That's why it seems like Indians are bright.

SO WRONG! That would apply for all Eastern cultures including middle East and would be anti thesis to American culture where everyone is spoken to with equal regard. The truth is in Hinduism where education is highly revered. So it's the Hindus who are cracking this code. In Indian sub-continent, when Muslims were sending their kids to Madrasas during colonization, Hindus were sending their kids to English medium Christian schools and cracking top jobs.

She is missing a big piece. Because of colonization, we, Indians, speak English. Which gives us a huge advantage in America and UK as compared to other Asian nationals.

Parag agarwal was trash to begin with. If he comes to her mind before Satya Nadella, she is full of bullshit.

Hindu culture

We talk about CEOs , but can we take a moment and talk about the VPs as well. There is astonishing number of VPs of Indian origin in silicon valley. We can ignore the software engineers for a while.

She praiseing socialist she is far left woke ideology supporter i think 😁😁😁 family is the Asian Indian successfull

I disagree with her. It's not indian nationals who are doing well. It's the indian diaspora as a whole which includes those who were indentured to other countries. It's all due to our emphasis and value of education hard work and culture

That’s very interesting but I can tell you as someone who grew up in South Asia and has an oriental spouse that these nuances are MORE present in places like Korea/Japan. Assuming it’s not a temporary statistical artefact (most likely case) - the overrepresentation in tech more likely comes from the ability to think abstractly and - and abstract, non-linear thinking is very much rooted in Indian philosophy. One only has to read Indian Buddhist or Vedic texts to appreciate this. Thanks for sharing, Joseph. Really enjoyed the talk with NNT btw!

Is it because of Bill Gates?

second time through many months later, wow this really got going..! oh and merry Christmas Joseph 🎄 😄

Now I want to eat mozzarella.

There is NO WORLD WAR 3 -- this is fear mongering. A chess move to push humanity towards something --- ASK WHY?

Thanks for your work Joe. You made lock-downs an ease.

A great chat!

They invented it.....If you invent it you may utilise it, how strange....

Strange personality and not very eloquent

I like this AGI named David Deutsch.

If Douglas hofstadter was also here. It would be good

The Samson Option.

If i'm not mistaken Israel conducted testing in 1971 between South Africa and Western Australia! Causing Iodine-131 contamination to the bottom half of Australia! That's why we have elevated rates of Thyroid Cancer today! Typical Zionists!

My concern with AGI surrounds its inherent goals. For humans, that is rather mysterious. We have goals but they constantly shift to avoid the example of cancer eradication they mention. We set a goal, but then shift constantly in working toward it, both externally and internally. We want to achieve something and follow a plan, but then priorities change and even in small ways, like we get bored, or there is emotional pain that causes us to shift our pursuits. And certainly morally, as the pursuit of our goal eventually conflicts with other values. It’s a constantly fluctuating balance of countless values. Humans have a deeply inherent goal of staying alive, but that’s not always the most foundational goal. That gives way in many scenarios to competing values. It seems to me that something akin to decency needs to underly it all, as a self corrective mechanism, or else there are countless ways the mix of values could lead AGI in a dangerous direction as it gets the values prioritization wrong in any given moment.
