i'm not sure if AI is a bubble that will pop no matter if we do or don't get imminent AGI so probably the 2nd one but he still has a while longer of having to play the rational intellectual

LW are the fundamentalist baptists of AI not even Russian Orthodox lol

Everytime I get freaked out by AI doom posts on twitter they're always coming from a LW goon who's street preaching about how we need to count our Christmases :< i just saw one that got my nerves on edge and checked their account and they had "printed HPMOR" in their bio and I facepalmed

True but specifically was referring to researchers since most of the researchers repping extinction risk are LW or yud influenced (Musk, Hinton, etc)

Kinda interesting that it's focused on smaller scale risks like malicious data instead of ahhh extinction ahhh

Is the whole x risk thing as common outside of North America? Realizing I've never seen anyone from outside the anglosphere or even just America/Canada be as God killingly Rational as the usual suspects

Most AI usage is hated but I saw a lot of people that were a fan of when Fortnite did it with the Darth Vader NPC a few weeks ago I thought it was creepy but hearing Vader talk about rizz or aura or the bite of 87 was kinda fun I guess

Are we sure that the doom stuff from the big companies is cynical hyping? Altman and co genuinely off their rocker feels fairly possible given what's come out about the internal structure of openai with burning ai effigys and shit
