Führung: „Die Leute müssen das Gefühl haben, blöd sein zu dürfen“

In an interview, Mr. Scheidegger questions the notion that people make increasingly "dumber" decisions despite having more knowledge. He posits that today's society experiences cognitive ego-centrism, where individuals prioritize their own perspectives and values. This phenomenon, he suggests, can lead to a clash of viewpoints and a sense of "overdummity."

Mr. Scheidegger argues that this is not a sign of declining intelligence, but rather a manifestation of people attempting to assert their own intelligence over established knowledge. He believes that this is a strategic move, in which these individuals defy the prevailing wisdom to give themselves room to breathe. He suggests that this is more of a pose or provocation, as these people still view themselves as intelligent.

Mr. Scheidegger then discusses the importance of dialogue and mutual understanding, arguing that an excess of knowledge can sometimes lead to a sense of mutual incomprehension. He concludes by critiquing artificial intelligence, stating that it is a pinnacle of the movement towards overintelligence, lacking the ability to engage in true dialogue and understanding.
