@Ojisola@asemota I think what you mean is "without significant leverage" not "power to execute". Leverage is the reason why execution can't happen without you, or would otherwise be hampered i.e. cost more, be slower, poorly executed, and so on.
@asemota I disagree 100%. This goes against the law of conservation of energy (resources). You have not factored in the effort put into knowing what you know. That took years to acquire.
If you've been to a university, then you've almost certainly made friends from across the Niger – North, South.
So I wonder how you can have friends across the divide, be educated and believe stereotypes over your own lived experience.
Are your friends monsters?
If I were to guess, I’d say Esau - with Jacob's help (and perhaps their mom) concocted a plan to divert Nimrod’s mighty men elsewhere, thus protecting Esau - sparing his life. If you really thought you were going to die and selling your birthright could save you, would you do it?
From that (desperate) point of view, he had no use for his birthright - hence the reason he sold it. He also sold land.
Jacob wasn’t entirely straight himself. He saw an opportunity and he took it.
@Julyannsark The issue with AI is that there is no human component to it. It's yes or no, zero or one. No discretion, no compassion. It can't compromise. The outcome is static, logical - even if erroneous... It doesn't have emotion, a conscience. It can't take the decision to be wrong!
@Julyannsark Oh wow. Ignorance is so much worse than corruption. May this never be our reality - but somehow I think that's the future id the world. AI is already being implemented in a few areas of our lives to police things - airport checking in/security, Meta platforms...
@lifeintheflesh@Julyannsark Nah, no one like snitches - that's a strange and universal thing I've found. Like you had no reason to. There was no push, prompting nor upside. You (not you) just carried your mumu leg and mouth to do gbeborun to authority figures... It's sanctimonious.
