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.]

From the linked Andrew Molitor item:
I have a feeling this is related to wanking about physics in the e/acc holy gospels. They invoke thermodynamics the way that people trying to sell you healing crystals for your chakras invoke quantum mechanics.
that's Beff too
the guy is actually almost a physicist, even flunked out of a Ph.D
Great credential for trying to "integrate physics and AI" if he's demonstrably too lazy to understand physics at an advanced level.
Not just physics, but the physics of the world. Which makes it sound as if AI and physics are fundamentally separate somehow.
Is BasedBeef aware that AI is already fundamentally merged with physics on the basis that it already physically exists? Just because your six finger, no light in her neon eyes gen AI waifu is 2D doesn't mean that the bits that comprise her are exempt from the physics of the universe. Really, what could that quote possibly even mean?
Ahhh you see, the physics of 2D waifus were actually covered on the seminar a year after he flunked out. Womp womp.
