- Finding ideal path
- Contribution is academia
- The professor's insight and researcher's passion
Rejection is a common occurrence in academia, and even renowned scholars experience it regularly. In academia, there is a tendency to only share success stories, and by hiding failure experiences, colleagues may develop impostor syndrome where they feel they are the only ones failing. Thus, by sharing experiences of failure, the aim is to create more transparency and realistic expectations across academia.
The reason good papers present not only one central idea but also two or three relatively less important ideas is because presenting just one idea risks being challenged, while research that simultaneously applies two or three ideas can demonstrate its safety and prove its originality.

The Sequences
Sequences — LessWrong
A sequence is a series of multiple posts on Less Wrong on the same topic, to coherently and fully explore a particular thesis. See the Library page for a list of LessWrong sequences in their modern form. The original sequences were written by Eliezer Yudkowsky with the goal of creating a book on rationality. MIRI has since collated and edited the sequences into Rationality: From AI to Zombies. If you are new to Less Wrong, this book is the best place to start. Rationality: From AI to Zombies Rationality: From AI to Zombies cover image. Rationality: From AI to Zombies is an ebook collecting six books worth of essays on the science and philosophy of human rationality. It's one of the best places to start for people who want to better understand topics that crop up on Less Wrong, such as cognitive bias, the map-territory distinction, meta-ethics, and existential risk. The ebook can be downloaded on a "pay-what-you-want" basis from intelligence.org. Its six books in turn break down into twenty-six sections: __________________________________________________________________ * Book I: Map and Territory. An introduction to the Bayesian concept of rational belief. * A. Predictably Wrong * B. Fake Beliefs * C. Noticing Confusion * D. Mysterious Answers __________________________________________________________________ * Book II: How to Actually Change Your Mind. A guide to noticing motivated reasoning and overcoming confirmation bias. * E. Overly Convenient Excuses * F. Politics and Rationality * G. Against Rationalization * H. Against Doublethink * I. Seeing with Fresh Eyes * J. Death Spirals * K. Letting Go __________________________________________________________________ * Book III: The Machine in the Ghost. Essays on the general topic of minds, goals, and concepts. * L. The Simple Math of Evolution * M. Fragile Purposes * N. A Human's Guide to Words __________________________________________________________________
