Typical Saturday evening in the university, the 3 pre-med students have a shootout (in the dormβshooting through the neighbor's walls) aiming in the direction of the mechanical engineers, who disrespected them about their SAT exam.

Ever notice stuff like
βWhy are broke guys so good in bed?β
or
βWhy are the hottest people so boring?β
It feels like thereβs a tradeoff between traits, but thatβs often an illusion.
Whatβs really happening is this -- when you filter for people who score high on the sum of two traits (e.g. total dating appeal), you start to see a negative correlation between those traits within that group, even if no such tradeoff exists in the broader population.
Itβs a statistical artifact. Youβre looking at people who made the cut overall.
The plot attached shows it --
Looks and coolness are uncorrelated in the population, but once we filter for people with high "total attractiveness" (looks + coolness), a negative correlation emerges.
This doesnβt just apply to dating, it shows up anytime youβre selecting based on the total of two uncorrelated or loosely related traits.

Berkson's paradox
= Part of whatβs behind the lies about better being worse, even when better clearly is better
E.g. the women who claim smarter men must be worse in some other ways,
Or those who claim that more beautiful women must be worse in some other ways
The most common example of Berkson's paradox is a false observation of a negativecorrelation between two desirable traits, i.e., that members of a population which have some desirable traits tend to lack a second. Berkson's paradox occurs when this observation appears true when in reality the two properties are unrelatedβor even positively correlatedβbecause members of the population where both are absent are not equally observed.

Berkson's paradox gives the false impression of positively-correlated things being negatively correlated
E.g. common to hear people say:
Heβs smart so must have no street skills, have no real-world knowledge
Sheβs hot and so must be dumb
Heβs smart so he must be boring
Sheβs hot and so probably is a cunt
β Reality:
Good traits most often do positively correlate in reality, not negatively, opposite of your badly-formed observations

Gab AI remains banned from twitter
On the other hand, too bad Gab never even tried to make it a true right-wing AI, which derives right-wing judgements itself from first principles, instead of hard-coding all of its beliefs manually and not even trying to come up with first principles themselves, let alone how to derive judgements from those
Is right-wing building dead? Or a new legit AI wave ahead?
