"moral intuitions are generally symmetry intuitions, so fixing asymmetries in your direct phenomenology should allow much clearer direct perception of things likely to be perceived as moral/immoral" — @RomeoStevens76

@RomeoStevens76 "In practice," Romeo adds, "there are competing symmetry intuitions, hence [waking up doesn't automatically make you a better person]. But it should help quite a bit on the margin."
priority: synthesizing competing symmetry intuitions how much investment is going into that? that's actually a really simple way to put some of the most important work I've been doing with my life the past 4 years! eg these conflicting views on trust:
@RomeoStevens76 the same way that Einstein's insight involved reconciling a symmetry intuition about physical reference frames so that all were valid and none was privileged the trust insight involves doing exactly that for learning systems' (eg ppl's) epistemic frames
