Is this top tier social science?
It's wrong, it's ALL wrong.
>Pinker believes an alpha male thinking pattern is at the root of our AI fears, and that it is misguided. Something can be highly intelligent and not have malevolent intentions to overthrow and dominate, Pinker says, it’s called women.

Women don't act horribly because of a sense of domination over others, but out of pure malice. A bad woman is worse than a bad man.

Huh, I think this is kinda true but more simply can be explained as the fear over loss of control

Pinker has always rubbed be the wrong way with his European exceptionalism bullshit.
Now he's going on with the "feminist don't want power" nonsense.
He's literally feeding his shit to the nu-males of this generation.
Redpill me on this book

He's not a Pseud, he's just shit.

Pinker is legit, but he's more a popularizer than an original researcher, kind of like Richard Dawkins.

His European exceptionalism? I'm genuinely curious now.
