In March of this year but I haven’t seen it reported at all:
I’m not four years old with a 13 year old “brother” climbing into my bed non-consensually anymore.
(You’re welcome for helping you figure out your sexuality.)
I’ve finally accepted that you’ve always been and always will be more scared of me than I’ve been of you
The coherent argument for “effective altruism” is that you should make a bunch of money and use it to buy mosquito nets and give them away for free.
But even that version of EA is just a sideshow, because all of the big spenders in the movement are people spending on AI research because they believe (this is not a joke) that in the future an AI will come into existence that will invent time travel and torture everybody who didn’t contribute to creating it for eternity. And in the short term they pay for these “donations” by doing finance scams, they’re a major force behind crypto and NFTs.
This is the kind of stuff that Sam Bankman-Fried blew all of his depositors’ money on.
That’s not Rokos basilisk. Rokos basilisk stipulates that the super AI will he able to perfectly simulate your and it will torture your simulation, and since the simuation is so accurate it would functionally be you, you would functionally be tortured. It’s not less dumb, but you should be accurate
Wait, so they actually believe that what-his-name demon or whatever it’s called? Figures techbros would miss practically every lesson about actual AI and philosophy.
Though I guess a paranoid tech/death cult is prime real-estate for grifters, so it all checks out.
Roko’s Basilisk and yep, they sincerely believe it. These are the people the market has decided are The Tech Understanders.
I don’t think you can confidently state that these people actually believe that or anything.
Rokos basilisk and probably not. The only person who 100% believes is Grimes.
To be fair. She dated Musk. Imagine being 50% of the richest coupple on earth and seeing how it is all fake. It’d melt a person’s brian
