The famous limit of 150 friends a human brain can supposedly hold turns out to rest on a calculation whose own confidence interval runs from 2 to 520 — too wide to support any specific number, let alone the one everyone quotes - Silicon Canals
https://siliconcanals.com/n-the-famous-limit-of-150-friends-a-human-brain-can-supposedly-hold-turns-out-to-rest-on-a-calculation-whose-own-confidence-interval-runs-from-2-to-520-too-wide-to-support-any-specific-number/

A decades-old rule about human friendship turns out to be built on such shaky math that it could just as easily be 2 or 520.

I'm Still Skeptical Because You Keep Using Faith in AI to Extrapolate | Josh Reed
https://jriddy.com/posts/skeptical-faith-ai-extrapolate/

I admit it. I took the bait. Charity Majors made an appearance on Gergely Orosz’s show called “Stop being skeptical about AI for development”. I listened to the podcast—I don’t listen to many tech podcasts—and I don’t think she ever said to stop being skeptical. Not directly anyways. Great title, though. Good for engagement. “Stop being skeptical” is a phrase guaranteed to rustle any skeptic’s jimmies. A whole lotta provocation, not a lotta substance. 10/10. No notes.
