Why You Should Be a Techno-Skeptic | Jonathan Haidt | TED
Humans aren’t just social — we’re ultrasocial, wired like bees and ants for deep connection. So what happens when smartphones take over childhood, tablets replace textbooks and AI companies infiltrate our kids’ lives? Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out three principles of technoskepticism — and explains why, two years after sounding the alarm in “The…

I don’t think judges make decisions based on what law says or in jurisprudence. Especially high court judges, their legal justification for a decision is far more a posteriori than a priori. What really matters is not the truth of your legal arguments, but the politics of the judges

The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act is a U.S. federal law enacted in 1970 (18 U.S.C. §§ 1961–1968) to combat organized crime by targeting ongoing criminal enterprises. It allows leaders of syndicates to be tried for crimes they ordered others to commit, featuring penalties of up to 20 years in prison per count, massive fines, and forfeiture of illegal proceeds.Key Aspects of RICO LawPurpose: Originally designed to dismantle the Mafia, RICO is now used against various criminal enterprises, including gangs, corrupt organizations, and white-collar crime.Requirements for Conviction: Prosecutors must prove a “pattern of racketeering activity,” defined as at least two related acts (predicate offenses) within a 10-year period.Predicate Acts: The law defines 35+ offenses—including murder, kidnapping, gambling, arson, robbery, bribery, extortion, mail/wire fraud, and money laundering—as racketeering.Enterprise: A RICO case requires an “enterprise,” which can be a legal entity (like a corporation) or an illegal association-in-fact (like a gang).Civil RICO: The act allows private victims of racketeering to sue for damages, often leading to treble damages (triple the actual damages).Legal SignificanceBeyond the Mafia: While originating from the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970, it has been used against corrupt police departments, Wall Street firms, and political organizations.Penalties: In addition to 20-year prison terms, RICO allows for the forfeiture of business interests and property gained through illegal activity.State RICO Laws: Many states, such as Georgia, have adopted their own, sometimes broader, versions of the RICO statute.

interesting talk….. but making generalized characterizations (13:15 – 13:35) of the justices on _this_ scotus as having _”character_” ?… and _”integrity”_ ?…. well, that sorta steals some of your credibility

精彩要點 by TubeLens:
01:13 Katyal 受雇挑戰總統史無前例的四兆美元關稅政策，這是最高法院237年歷史中從未有過的任務，他面對的不僅是法律難題，更是外界普遍認為不可能成功的輿論壓力。
04:49 心理教練 Ben 幫助 Katyal 面對「我不屬於這裡」的冒牌者症候群，並引導他將「我必須做到」（got to）轉化為「我有幸能做到」（get to），一個母音的改變讓恐懼轉化為喜悅與使命感。
07:07 AI 系統 Harvey 被訓練於過去25年所有最高法院法官的提問紀錄、意見書與異議書，能精準預測各位法官的提問角度，甚至預測出首席大法官的潛在投票路徑，為辯論準備提供了強大的「周邊視野」。
08:25 即興表演教練 Liz 教導 Katyal「真正傾聽」的藝術——先清空自己的思緒，接收對方的問題後再建構回應，將法官的質疑轉化為對話，使法庭氣氛從對抗轉為交流。
13:43 Katyal 強調 AI 最大的風險在於讓人停止思考，一旦人們說「電腦這樣說」便放棄判斷。他的團隊將 Harvey 視為辯論夥伴而非神諭，由 AI 提問、由人類找答案，才是正確的人機協作模式。
14:20 AI 正在瓦解傳統專家優勢（大量閱讀、記憶與模式識別），但「連結」——理解另一個人內心深處的擔憂並即時回應——是 AI 無法複製的最後一項不可替代的人類能力。
