So who is motivated to dedicate significant time to attacking AI x-risk beliefs, generally in their spare time?

This is exactly analogous to the baffled coiners who couldn’t understand why people spent even a minuscule amount of time criticizing Bitcoin, when they weren’t remunerated for doing so.

edit

I misread this sentence

Some people find Al gore smug and pretentiousness

as referring to AI gore which is a great term for generated shit.

Also Al Gore was a thing about 30 years ago, maybe update the cultural touchstones.

I read it the same way, but he is quite pretentiousness.

Well you should write for the audience you want to reach so I don’t see anything wrong with an al gore ref in that context.

“AI gore, smug and pretentiousness” is a good summary of the sneer-subject of this server.

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

[Especially don’t debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
