I think I can answer that: It's not meant to obtain Zuckerberg's answer. It was meant to get Zuckerberg ask himself that very same question later. How do you spawn a change within someone? You do not "tell them to change". Rather than that, you get them to think the subject through and through.

I would argue that that's not actually true. The terrible people might have seemed from the outside to feel good about themselves and they had giant egos.

It's only the people in pain who want to bring pain to others.

@@ThinkHuman "No happy and fulfilled human being wants to harm others" are you sure? first of all: happiness is no constant condition. second: many rich and somehow satisfied people exactly want this; harm other people. why? because "their success", what ever its made of, often makes them think to be something better than others. one possibility. the other causes are for example crazy wishes for consumption, that always go on. its multicausal of course, just as the influence on happiness is multicausal and never static. i could go on forever with this. i just think, you are wrong with this statement.

You can’t solve a problem without knowing the values of people. It becomes problematic when a government is authoritarian rather than democratic. If you’re worried about AI knowing more about yourself than you do then that’s a problem with the individual/variable being too gullible/persuaded/ manipulated by emotions and popular culture. People need to go inward and find out what their values are. The solution is mathematical the problem is rap music and basketball tailgate “culture”.

[@windjammer0506]

I've listened to this conversation, and listened to two other videos with Harari in them yesterday. One thing I did seem to understand, especially after today's video, is that neither of these people want to give credit to a higher power, God. Both are Jewish, and The Tanakh, which is also the Christian's first ten books of the bible, is there to learn. Of course, Christians go one to read the rest of the book. It amazes me that these two brilliant men are not using their wisdom, given to them from the Almighty God (remember all wisdom comes from God,) to give Him the credit for what they have gained, or to use it for His glory, which is what the Bible requires. They may see my view differently, but in what they are discussing, someone is going to be left out, though they try to act like they don't really want to leave anyone out. That isn't the way the Bible even works. A person is suppose to have a personal relationship with the Lord, who in turn blesses them, and they gain from that. If we fail to spread the message of God and His Truth, what do we gain in the next world? It is as if you won't have a place in the next world if we rely on these teachings. The Bible does state that all history repeats itself; that there is nothing new under the sun. American will follow your advice because we are being led at this time by atheistic people, and the Lord is going to abandon us as a nation. Of course, those who believe and follow His commandments will be just fine, either this side of heaven or the other side. That is the biggest picture these guys are missing out on.

[@ridvancaner6843]

It is obvious that Zuckerberg just can't understand what Yuval is talking about. Clearly, he needs to read all the books of Yuval so that he can understand what Yuval talks about. Religions|ideologies used to hack human brains and redesign| reengineer the brains of individuals in the past.. In the near future, AI or social media platforms or Hitech industries will replace religions... Human Will IS NOT FREE... There is no such thing as FREE WILL... Our mind sets are shaped by forces other than our OWN will... Though we believe to choose this or that freely actually we choose what our manipulators want us to choose and the funny thing about it is that we think we choose on our own alone...So, voting and democracy IS A BIG LIE. A drug addict will for a drug. Wishes to have a drug... Does he really want it or the drug wants his or her brain to long for it? Religions make us believe in certain gods and we think that we have chosen our god on our own...In near future, Hitech or AI will shape our mindset to choose a particular politician or a product and then we will choose that particular product or politician and will think that we have made that choice solely by our volution at our own discretion... I think Zuckerberg is not avoiding anything. He is just in need of reading a lot of books on human choices and human will and mind-controlling. Yuval and Zuckerberg are the last 2 people to talk about human engineering and free will and ethics/values. That is because their talk has shown that Zuckerberg is the least knowledgeable person to talk on these matters with a professor.

[@henry050607]

​@@ili626 Hope I can clear up some of your resentment towards Vipassana, and I'm sorry that Vipassana meditators have presented themselves in a bad way to you. First off, you portray meditators as privileged leeches living off the charity (and cookery!) of others. The reality is that the same people who sit the courses also volunteer to serve/cook on them. The food and board is paid for via donations from old students, too, because many feel such gratitude for the teaching. In fact, it's a real pleasure to "cook other people's meals for them", because it lets old students give back the peace and harmony they've gained from the teaching :) Thus, Vipassana's a community of giving and receiving freely and without demands: I don't really see what's objectionable about that! The privilege of having a week and two weekends off is, for many people, a result of either sacrificing holiday time or choosing a life path that involves less money and more time. Most people can find 7 workdays to take off at some point in their life, it's usually a question of sacrifice. Yes, there is something self-centred about devoting so much time to self-improvement, I agree. This is why so much of the course is about "Metta" generating compassionate love for others. Many meditators actually use the course to then leave it and go out into the world and do good things, just like our main man Mr Harari up here. Lastly, you seem to perceive meditators to treat their vow of silence with pride and false heroism. This confuses me. Noble silence is only one component of the course requirements. It's really not the core of the challenge, it's just the thing that for some reason shocks those who haven't sat before the most. Anyone who sits the courses will tell you that the challenge is to meditate for 10 hours a day, dissolve your ego as much as possible, resist your temptations, and generate compassion for all creatures. To quote the course, the challenge is to work diligently, ardently, patiently, and persistently. That is the only challenge, not the silence! I really encourage you to give it a try yourself, be open to the idea that it might lead to some harmony and goodwill you, and that that may have a net positive effect on the world around you :)

@@lexforsaken1404 Conceptually I couldn’t agree more with you, the thing is that when you listen to the first 15 minutes, you’ve heard everything Mark has to say. In this interview at least, he’s not interested in reflecting on what the consequences can be of his company doing what they do, he remains repeating that he’s full of good intentions. What Yuval is trying to tell him is that this tech can (and most likely will) be used by people whose intentions and interests are very diverse, but Mark simply doesn’t want to hear it.

@@Czypu do you mean the same Facebook that tracks your data and sells it to advertising companies or the social media platform the least popular amongst younger genrations? Because Facebook is a multi billion company that does have a marketing strategy, not only directed for you to open an account but to keep you using its platform and services. Facebook main business is not providing you for a space to post embarrassing photos of yourself for free but matchmaking your profile with potential products and services that pay for that very specicific information. This is Facebook basic business model. None one is giving you entertainment for free. Because if you think Facebook main mission was to bring you closer to your friends and relatives you really need to ask yourself if you're not only just repeating the company most famous tagline: bringing people together.

But it all seemed natural and as expected for me cause they're from different backgrounds dealing with different things so their pov and posession of info will obviously be very different. Harari didn’t talk from an economic and technological pov, at least not on the lvl of Mark and vice versa...

Mark is given too much hate for his comments and thought process. But we should appreciate his courage to be able to sit in front of Yuval and articulate his thoughts.

As far as I understand, Mr. Hirari has 2 fears about AI technologies: 1. Increase of inequalities between countries: on this there is a parallel made between the European colonialism in the late 19th century and what Facebook, and overall the "AI community", may be at risk of doing virtually today. 2. Control or influence of population using AI technologies: overall what strikes here is the refusal of Mr. Zuckerberg to open up to the idea that Facebook itself maybe a testing ground, or worse than that, for large scale population control though AI technologies. The parallel between centralized Russia and Facebook is probably the scariest of Harari's insights. Even if we believe in the positive intend of Facebook to help connect people, create communities, or simply give small business owners easier access to people who would benefit from their products, I cannot help be concerned about the negative potential of FB in terms of influencing people life's by spreading to them a tuned sub-category of information. This debate is fascinating because Mr. Harari is asking whether Facebook should exist, while Mr. Zuckerberg is answering how to make it the best possible... :-) He is claiming that he designs FB to answer the long term fundamental needs of their customers, while Harari is saying that FB has the ability to manipulate these fundamental needs, of course including the needs about FB itself... It is fair to say that the world isn't only FB, but when you look at the way information is shared between FB, Google, Amazon,... there is a real concern that the guidance that is being provided in various forms has a real influence on people. Both fears are probably enabled by the fact that good feelings and good people can do the most terrible things...Indeed, the worst belief may be the blind belief in good, especially one's good, the good of one's country,... the power of the belief in good as means of gaining acceptance from people believing in good was illustrated perfectly in the movie "Vice" where the terrible deeds of the Bush administration are shown to have been designed from the onset on the grounds that since the President of the US is a force of good by definition, it is just not possible that he may be doing bad things. At least Dick Chenney knew he was just manipulating a country... This is also discussed here from another angle, which is the angle of data ownership (as the source of power of AI algorithms). Here also, Facebook sees itself as the good guys located in a good country. There is no answer to the insightful question from Harari about whether a Tump led US can still be trusted to be a force of the good when it states openly that his priority is himself (as a person, as a country). Good enough that the citizens of the world should trust it to store their confidential data. Openness and globalism is used here as a selling agent for the need to refuse the supposedly negative trend of fragmentation. While the underlying question about trust is evaded. Can we trust policies to be the right ones in the current context? Can we trust Facebook to follow policies. And even if they intend to, can we actually monitor whether they do? And the ultimate question... can we still trust ourselves when our views are being recommended to us by algorithms?

Great sum up, Zuck just kept wanting to stand on an optimistic stand bc I understand thats the attitude he needs to have as head of Facebook. wht Yuval wish to hear frm him as Yuval stated in his book is whether Zuck would be willing to reduce the use of Facebook, ofcourse still helping ppl best to connect, to let ppl go out and interact with each other, in addition change Facebook into a model not dependent on data collecting and protect ppl best as it can. Zuck cannot state Whether hes willing to sacrifice some of his company or even most of it when necessary for the good of the world. I dont know if he has any will or thinking of it but certainlt he can never say that as head of the company. But I think he somewhat gets Yuval's points, hopefully he will try to prevent malevolent outcomes

[@osomusic]

There was an episode of South Park were a tool was developed to catch internet Trolls. The side effect for that you can find anyone's entire internet (and comment) history if you just type his name in the search bar. The mayor or the chief of police (if I remember correctly) told the people of the town that they shouldn't be scared - if no one will type names into the system, all of them are safe. So they just need to trust that people are good and can resist that temptation. All of the people freaked out at that moment because they know people are shit. And everyone watching that episode knows that they are right to be scared. We cannot trust that the average person is good and so the technology will be used for good. If a powerful tool is used then bad people will use it. Mark is just running away from the questions because he can't handle them.

Zuckerberg never shifts his perspective, or even admits that perhaps he should. I find this scary. He is speaking with a brilliant expert in history and humanity, yet never listens to learn: he listens only well enough to argue his own premise. Zuckerberg believes that people who are impoverished and marginalized by the AI revolution can simply make different political choices, even as he fights to allow political disinformation on Facebook. Throughout this conversation, he seems uninterested in any new perspective on his institution or his grandiose plans (issuing his own currency, connecting the entire world on his terms and undermining current political institutions) to remake the world according to his rather narrow fields of interest. He seems to genuinely believe he knows how to dictate the terms under which the entire world should be run. He seems determined to forget that power and knowledge do not equate to wisdom. As for Harari, he seems to find that Zuckerberg's egoism is far more dangerous than he previously knew. This does not stem from a lack of awareness or preparation on Harari's part, but from Zuckerberg's inability to value any viewpoint that doesn't coincide with his own.

When doing the over-the-shoulder shot, the cinematographer chose to shoot from a lower angle when showing Zuckerberg, making him look essential and dominating.

These are the basic rules of cinematography when shooting a dialogue scene like this. Why did the production team choose to shoot in this way? :)

One thing I have noticed about Mark Zuckerberg is that he needs to do some homework on how to become a good listener.
