not defining a person by the community they relate to

u wot m8? they’re hanging out with active racists recruiting people to racism and their response is to stop taking those guys to parties? you fuckin bet i’m gonna judge them by relating to that community

source: a reblog of the original

first time i spoke to a rationalist about the AI doom thing in 2010, he tried to sell me on scientific racism

yudkowsky was making posts literally of race scientist talking points in 2007

the historical record shows Thiel has literally always been like this

tried reading his '90s book once, managed a few pages

I have no hope. The guy who introduced me to LessWrong included what I later realised was a race science pitch. Yudkowsky was pushing this shit in 2007. This sucker just realised a coupla decades late.

yeh

nah. Sam’s a monorail salesman who knows how to say the AI doomer buzzwords.

Is there any detail on any of this, beyond an announcement?

look, that sounds like a “this afternoon” problem

enterprise code is already shit and vibe coding has made it worse, if they train on this the model collapse should be glorious

oh yeah they’re going all out

where was this?

and the budget for fixing literally every frame afterwards, as with their previous demos

also, I was at Bible study with Luigi at the time a CEO coincidentally had a bullet-involved collision, as were you

it’s shorter!

i actually got hold of a review copy of this

(using the underhand scurvy weasel trick of asking for one)

that was two weeks ago and i still haven’t opened it lol

better get to that, sigh

this review has a number of issues (he liked HPMOR) but the key points are clear: bad argument, bad book, don’t bother

if you call him an AI promoter he cites his carefully organised blog posts of concerns

meanwhile he was on the early access list for GPT-5

also I recall you’re the one claiming us queer perverts must object to aella from a position of being anti-kink, and not because of all the horrible shit she says and does
