Stuart Sutherland quotes:

The willingness to change one's mind in the light of new evidence is a sign of rationality not weakness.

...is impossible to specify what [consciousness] is, what it does, or why it evolved. Nothing worth reading has been written on it.

Consciousness is a fascinating but elusive phenomenon: it is impossible to specify what it is, what it does, or why it evolved. Nothing worth reading has been written on it.

To establish that a rule is likely to be true, one must try to prove it false.
