"You hate AI art? Well name all real paintings!" the blog post.

Also talking about the urinal "Art, it seems, is most meaningful when it challenges our very concept of what art is." No that was in 1917. Pretty sure that nowadays 'what is art even?' art is quite overdone and boring.

The point of this post is ssc. Not vance. The problem is you.

Sneerclub is a point and laugh at the radicalizing Rationlists place not complain about the gop place. (And if you dont know what that is read the rationalwiki (not related to the Rationalists) on lesswrong).

I want to make a HN account and reply to the 'depression and schizophrenia is or isn't a hardware/software issue' posters and tell them there is actually is a working IQ test, and they all just failed it.

Being on themotte (or equivalent places) is also so bad for your long term mental health.

The People Who Pray At Prompts are suddenly very worried about cults.

E: haha spoke too soon

from the replies:

Do you really think "cult" is a useful category/descriptor here?

My view: things identified as "cults" have a bunch of good traits. EA should, where possible, adopt the good traits and reject the bad ones, and ignore whether they're associated with the label "cult" or not.

Wonder what went wrong there, did they just see the word EA and Cult and went 'people are calling Rationalism a cult again, time to deploy the Rationalist answer. A bot? Something else? (More edit, ah prob somethign else as this is prob a reaction to the whole line of tweets and not that specific tweet, a line of tweets which are doing the geek social fallacies there is a little bit more to being a cult than just ostracizing people)

and at a risk of beating a dead horse

None of us are doctors, so we cannot declare the horse legally dead. So please keep beating it so it doesn't stand back up and turn us all into paperclips.

E: it also was a good article.

As superpredicted here by us, the superpredictors.

Personally I think a unnoticed black swan event relating climate change is way more likely. 'Whoops turns out that we thought 1.5C wasn't that big a problem but this causes some feedback loop in the oceans killing them all, yes it caused more algae to grow, but these had less nutrition causing the fish to overeat and die, causing the algae to choke themselves out. Dead seas everywhere'.

'lol you did more research than I did for my whole company'

I'm a fan of extreme metal, and I know you cannot just hide behind 'im just singing a song' since I was in my teens (or earlier). I know people often make bad arguments just because they are reaching for anything to try and defend somebody they like/agree with ideologically but this is super duper weak and embarrassing.

Also, apparently it doesn't hold up in court. People have gotten in trouble for 'in minecraft' statements, and at least in the Netherlands saying 'it means all cats are beautiful' still gets you fined for an acab reference to a cop. These are not computer systems where you can go 'I mean B not A beep boop' and the problem disappears in a puff of logic.

you’ve got to engineer it to be viral.

All this attention including the whole Andreessen thing and he doesn't go above 50k followers. As far as virality goes that is pretty bad.

Also from his twitter: "We literally became a sufficient threat to the system that they felt compelled to attempt to neutralize me.

The thing is, I am a man of belief. You can take everything from me. I don't care. I am going to keep going until I'm dead.

You cannot stop acceleration."

Sure buddy the system did that. Keep riding the wave, in five years we will all gather on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look west.
