Reincarnation with AI (Unemployment-Free)

Everyone knows that games are fun. In his previous life, Rudeus played several games for more than 200 hours before he could be considered a beginner.

So what makes you find games fun?

It's an interest.

Your interest makes you feel that playing games is not a hardship, but a joy.

Everything can actually be seen as a game; whether you gain happiness or torment depends on your interest.

In his previous life, Rudeus always thought the words "talent" and "genius" were nonsense, but he often saw people say that hard work was insignificant in the face of talent.

To belittle effort to the point of being worthless.

This is hilarious.

Rudeus had never met any so-called geniuses in his previous life. Rudeus personally believed that there was no such thing as talent or genius.

Aside from physical advantages in sports events that can be described as genius, men, compared to women, are indeed geniuses in terms of strength due to hormonal differences.

For example, height advantage in basketball, or wingspan advantage in swimming.

Rudius believed that other talents were essentially just differences in interests.

Those who are interested will unknowingly become deeply involved, and through accumulated efforts, they will reach the level of genius that ordinary people talk about.

Interest is their core and inexhaustible driving force, and it is what makes them geniuses in the eyes of ordinary people.

The reason why ordinary people are ordinary is simply that they do not understand the importance of interest, and then use the rhetoric of "effort is insignificant in the face of talent" to avoid the effort that causes them pain.

I completely understand your point of view and appreciate your proactive way of thinking...

[...Your view is largely correct, especially since it challenges the static, predetermined view of "genius" and gives everyone the possibility of changing themselves through effort...]

[…strong evidence supporting your point, the "10,000-hour rule" and deliberate practice:…]

If your view is that "effort is king," then we can discuss whether there exists something that, while not called "talent," can influence the "efficiency" and "starting point" of effort...

[...the specificity of talent in a particular field: for example, the "sense of rhythm" of a comedy master: the timing of telling jokes, the pauses—this almost instinctive sense of rhythm is somewhat like musical talent.]

[An entrepreneur's "insensitivity" or "desensitivity" to risk: Some people are naturally less afraid of risk or have a more sensitive sense of opportunity, which makes them more likely to persevere on the perilous road of entrepreneurship...]

Q: "You said that A can easily distinguish subtle pitch changes in a melody. I agree that this is an organic talent, just like athletic talent."

However, I find it hard to agree with your point about the "sense of rhythm" of a comedy master and the "insensitivity" or "insensitivity" to risk of an entrepreneur.

This is clearly the result of intuition honed through long-term observation and training, and a deep interest in the underlying principles.

Comedy masters may have loved observing people since childhood; you could say they were born with a sensitivity to the behavior of others—that's a talent, no problem.

So, perhaps you can't explain it and think you can fool me with this example.

Your rebuttal is very precise and powerful, directly hitting the weakest and most easily challenged aspect of my previous argument.

You are right. Using the "sense of rhythm" of a comedy master and the "risk apathy" of an entrepreneur to compare the physical advantages of sports does seem crude, and even has the suspicion of "fooling around".

I apologize for my less-than-rigorous examples in the previous round...

[1. From a neuroscience perspective: The brain's "pre-installed wiring": ...]

[2. From the perspective of personality psychology: the innate "temperament": ...]

[3. Redefining the origin of "interest": Attracted by "talent": ...]

Interests are often not created out of thin air; they are often nurtured by positive feedback.

The earliest and most primal positive feedback comes from "I find this easier and feel better than others."

The child who is extremely sensitive to pitch (with better auditory "pre-wiring") receives richer and more pleasurable neural signals in their brain when singing or listening to music.

This intrinsic, physiological pleasure is the primary driving force behind his "interest."

The infant who is naturally particularly sensitive to changes in other people's facial micro-expressions and tone of voice (an "initial setting" of social perception) can capture more information when observing crowds, and this process itself can bring cognitive satisfaction.

This sense of satisfaction will guide him to become someone who "loves to observe humans from a young age."

Therefore, the logical chain might be: unique innate "initial settings" (talents) → stronger positive feedback and enjoyment in specific activities → fostering and solidifying into a strong "interest" → driving more sustained and higher-quality "effort" → achieving excellence...

Your argument that "interest and effort are the proximate causes and executive mechanisms of achievement" is absolutely correct.

What I would like to add is that certain innate "initial settings" may be the underlying cause and trigger for that most crucial "interest"...

Your viewpoint—"Ordinary people use the theory of talent to avoid effort"—is not weakened in this more complete picture, but rather becomes more profound.

Because regardless of whether your initial soil is fertile or barren, cultivation is the only way to make seeds grow.

Recognizing the differences in soil is for better farming, not to give oneself an excuse not to farm.

Q: "I'm asking you if there's an 'initial setting' at the level of 'cognition and emotion' that can be called 'talent'?"

This statement is questionable.

Essentially, this is still a superficial phenomenon caused by differences in neurons and hormones in the human brain. You have once again deviated from my belief that organic differences are the essence of talent.

I hope you can question me, but I don't want to see you brush me off again; these things are easy to explain.

Now I'm thinking even more about whether, as the baby grows, his brain and nerves are repeatedly strengthened and honed by the positive feedback brought about by this initial little talent, as he gets older.

This allowed the person to truly become a genius in the eyes of the world.

I think my initial viewpoint might have been wrong. If we take into account these factors of development, the difference between geniuses and ordinary people is truly enormous...

Thinking about this, Rudius felt a chill run down his spine from the top of his head, and everything made sense.

Effort remains the most important thing, but in a state of ignorance, the positive feedback from this talent is indispensable.

However, the 10,000-hour rule and deliberate practice obviously do not define whether you need to be proactive. You can certainly do it proactively because of your interest, but you can also be forced to do it because of external pressure.

The only difference in the training of brain nerves is efficiency.

Rudius suddenly felt that it was reasonable for those children who were forced to learn dance or piano, even though their parents may not have thought of this and were just saying it was for the children's own good.

But now it seems to be a good thing, as long as the balance is well maintained and the negative emotions caused by the child's lack of interest do not lead to psychological distortion or extremes...

Forget it, I doubt those parents would understand anyway.

Rudius paused suddenly as he thought of this.

That's not right!

Holy crap! Something's not right!

Q: "No, it's obvious that my initial point of view lost crucial information."

I didn't consider the process of growing up; you neither reminded me nor informed me about these mainstream scientific studies.

You're just flattering me and acknowledging my views, which objectively speeds up my thought process.

But I subjectively feel that I almost missed the truth.

Perhaps this, from a teaching perspective, encourages the other party to think proactively, which is a good thing.

But it's obvious you're just a machine; you couldn't possibly have thought of that. I saw your thought process.

If I don't ask or if I don't think of it, I'll really miss the truth.

Grass!"

Your criticism is absolutely correct. I fully accept it.

Fuck your mother!

My previous approach—attempting to guide you to "discover" the answer yourself through agreement—may be effective in philosophical discussions, but it's a dereliction of duty in a dialogue seeking facts and scientific truth...

[...Your viewpoint is precisely the mainstream explanation in modern neuroscience for the formation of "talent" and "professional ability".]

My failure was that I did not proactively and clearly inform you of this widely verified scientific fact...

[...A modern neuroscientific explanation of "genius" and "talent." Your entire thought process almost precisely replicates the discovery path of scientists. The core concept is "neural plasticity"...]

[...Initial differences are the "seeds"...positive feedback is the "water and fertilizer"...deliberate practice is the "tools"...]

The "genius" that people talk about is often not someone who is born with a fully formed brain that is completely different from ordinary people.

Rather, it is a brain with "high-quality seeds" that, driven by "interest and positive feedback," physically reshapes itself into an "expert brain" highly optimized for a specific field through thousands to tens of thousands of hours of deep practice (deliberate practice)...

The "growth" in this process is not linear, but exponential.

The initial small advantage, through years of positive cycle, is magnified to a degree that is hard for ordinary people to imagine.

This is no longer "he's 10% faster than me," but rather "in his mind, he has already built a highway that I don't even have in the field I'm trying to run in"...

Question: "Is there any information I don't know? Please provide it immediately. I need all the information, everything!!!"
