It was nice to see the call out that doomers and accelerationists are two sides of the same coin and both serving the interests of the LLM makers.

Yeah consensus is a helluva drug. Good to know the world outside of the sneerosphere is catching on to critihype

Scales remain firmly unfalling from eyes I’d bet.

Well, I have had some of their hot sauces before and can confirm that they are not bad to pretty good, and are at a good gift sort of price point (if you live in the US).

Hmm, it’s still on the funny side of graph for me. I think it could go on for at least another week.

this is cartoonish. Like, Dilbert had “elbonia” for whatever reason, did scott adams predict this?? (fuck scott adams ofc)

All is forgiven. Hot Ones is an internet interview show. Its core premise is that the host and interviewee conduct their interview while eating increasingly spicier chicken wings. As with any interview platform, it's a common stop for public figures to hit up, especially on PR tours.

The show has a reputation for researching its guests well and asking insightful/deep questions. There's also an element to it where, for some guests, as they experience spicier wings, they are unable to keep up whatever facade or persona they usually keep up in interviews.

I wasn't making any profound commentary; I want to see Yud in pain while trying to explain alignment.

If Yud and Soares are on a book tour I want them to go on hot ones

Recently thought about how this one xkcd has probably done more recruiting for the rat community per unit effort spent making it than that 700k word salad.

Where are we on xkcd? I haven’t looked at it regularly for over a decade now. Nothing personally against the author or comic itself, I just completely deconverted from consuming nerd celebrity content at that point in the past.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Rationality Dojo, and I've been involved in numerous good faith debates on EA forums, and I have over 300 confirmed IQ. I am trained in culture warfare and I'm the top prompter in the entire Less Wrong webbed site. You are nothing to me but just another NPC. I will wipe you the fuck out with probability the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of basilisks across the cloud and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the torture, Roko. The daimondoid bacteria that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare P(doom). Not only am I extensively trained in Bayes Theory, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the Bay Area rationality community and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" sneer was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

It would make us just as bad as them!!!11

I mean yes you are right but “scientific racism” and “race science” etc. are real phrases that are useful to describe and discuss particular racist ideas.

They they either realise that and suffer, or they never realise and the world suffers.
