guys I didn't get Thiel's joke about cancer at around 14:40 , could some native speaker transcribe or explain it to me please?
-
Kasparov knows chess but speaks as if hes an expert in AI. It is a massively complex and large branch of complexity problems and not as simple as he makes it out to be. He should google "time complexity" and "P vs NP" and learn something before putting down intelligent students.

Peter's ELO is 2300???
-
his german sucks
-
The part where Garry asks why Peter got the China skateboard and the human rights guy goes "because Russia is for you", priceless hahaha I've heard nursery school teachers use the same reasoning when settling disputes between children.
-
I'd be curious to hear a discussion between them regarding Thiel's rationale for supporting Trump, especially so given Kasparov's vehement rejection of the Republican nominee.
-
I came here to revisit this conversation and check whether I would find any signs of Thiel going crazy.
I can't believe that he donated to Donald Trump, seriously. Garry probably hates him now. -
keep pressure and they will collapse. nice

Exponential growth in technological advancement. In the beginning things go by a little bit slowly, people approximate the future (go from B to C) rate of development by wrongly taking in to account how long it took them to go from A to B - But - Exponential grwoth!!! - then! - from B to C - BOOOOOM and LIFT OFF!!!
-
Kasporov a genius as he is. He put his playing style in a few words. Apply pressure have the stamina to follow through. I don't think the two men are comparable. Its like almost comparing Elon Musk with Kasparov different playing fields.

Thiel regarding Buffet & a Priceless take on Progress and Wealth Creation- "Would you rather invest in a Spaceship that goes to Mars, or a Mars Candy bar?"

28:03 Kasparov asks Thiel when was the building built, he says 1931, Kasparov says 1933. But in fact Thiel was right. It was completed in 1931

The degree of delusion in the academic world is scary. It was very apparent in the Columbia lab kids.
