It's worth noting that the vast majority of views for this video are from Elon Musk amplifying it by quote tweeting it. Tucker's guest Elon is amplifying is currently charged with rape and human trafficking.

One of the reasons tuberculosis continues to infect and kill more people is because you refuse to allow the widespread distribution of affordable bedaquiline, which is essential to stopping the spread of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and curing those infected by it.
It takes some gall to wonder aloud what the problem is when you know that you are the problem. You've had 20 years of a bedaquiline monopoly. You've made your money. ENOUGH.

@d_f_stone @MatthewGNagler @ShengwuLi @CFCamerer re EE, if a buyer demands a discount below their valuation to compensate them for overcoming their desire to imitate the seller, and the seller demands a premium above their valuation to overcome their desire to imitate the buyer then this would produce a WTP-WTA gap

[Ed Baker @EdBaker3]

@d_f_stone @MatthewGNagler @ShengwuLi @CFCamerer Agreed. I find the similarity of GiG with more general imitation suggestive though. Perhaps GiG is social learning misfiring. Perhaps more natural to think of GiG as causing imitation dynamic like fads and fashions.

[Ed Baker @EdBaker3]

@d_f_stone @MatthewGNagler @ShengwuLi @CFCamerer Endowment Effect can be seen as the result of buyer needing to be compensated for their desire to imitate the seller (the buyer and seller are doing opposite things, both fighting desire to imitate). If this is right, then greater uncertainty means both greater EE and GiG.

[Ed Baker @EdBaker3]

@d_f_stone @MatthewGNagler @ShengwuLi @CFCamerer Perhaps GiG is not excessive. If grass is 'chosen', GiG is a form of imitation. The greater the uncertainty in the best action/consumer bundle, the more attractive imitation becomes. As in herding and social learning. (Desire to imitate high status/successful people still stands)

@davidhagmann @d_f_stone @MatthewGNagler @ShengwuLi @CFCamerer Evidence against:
-Goods with more uncertain value have bigger endowment effects, e.g. non-market goods & esp. environmental goods. https://t.co/YATd1zCFKI
-As uncertainty is eliminated so is the endowment effect as in Plott-Zeiler and also https://t.co/fTa242PInL

Seen on FB, this is interesting because it’s both more or less right & also very unexpected. I don’t think anyone in AI the past few decades really imaged this would be the order things would advance in — driving hard, writing really clever rap battles easy.
