The original paper gives the temperatures in Celsius:

For decades after their discovery, no eukaryote was shown to replicate above 60°C. We isolated a geothermal amoeba, Incendiamoeba cascadensis, that divides at 63°C and is motile up to 64°C. […] The minimum growth temperature is 42°C, with no growth at 40°C or lower; optimal growth is at 55°C–57°C (Figure 2A; Table S6), and maximum growth is at 63°C, with no growth at 64°C or higher.

Bonds are borrowed money—they eventually have to be repaid (with interest) from regular tax revenue.

Asimov’s robots were inherently algorithmic.

LLMs are inherently stochastic, and can’t be made to conform to any laws with certainty.

I think it’s (at least in part) instinctive: humans have probably been listening to storytellers for hundreds of thousands of years, and their stories shape our worldview and society. Rejecting the narratives of storytellers with destructive views would have had real survival value.
