Why is risk aversion a bias, but love is not? We know that risk aversion is strictly dominated for rational agents, but I think it likely that love is strictly dominated by some clever game-theoretic approach to mating. Why oppose wireheading, for that matter? Like eliminating risk aversion, it's a more efficient way for us to get what we want.
I am still confused.
Sure? :-)
