I was asked whether I use any AI.
When I said that I don't need it, I was given a strange look and was called primitive/a madman.
Is humanity really that far gone that we have to rely on a data collecting machine by big tech to be our second brain?
It seems that people have gotten too lazy to even look something up online.
Edit: "b-but he bombed people" I in no way compare myself to the Unabomber and only agree on his take of humanity becoming slaves of the tools they depend on.
If that quote is real then George Carlin does not know the meaning of average.
While people typically equate "average" with the mean, that is not a hard definition. Average is a colloquialism, and can be the median or mode, or other central tendency.
Average is a decent proxy for median when things are on a standard distribution.
What distribution is IQ on again? ...
Nah he was just good enough at what he did to know "Median" wouldn't work as a punchline.
If you doubt this quote is real, look him up. Cuz you are almost certainly missing out.
First time I hear about him, I guess it makes sense he would say that in a comedy show.
He was incredibly good with words.
His routine on near misses.
His get on the plane? fuck you I'm getting IN the plane!
He has some cringe stuff by today's standards but he was an incredibly insightful and intelligent comedian.
He used "median" when playing shows for the upper intelligence half.
Kidding.
Mean, median, and mode are all types of averages.
Depends on the school and country.
He knew his audience would understand what he meant because a lot of people use average to mean the middle even though it isn't technically correct.
