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.]

Not to mention, the aforementioned bubble's given us shit like some jackasses' ghoulish (and failed) attempt to "revive" George Carlin, attempts to automate end-of-life care, "AI seances" designed to scam the grieving, and God-knows-what-else.
So, the very concept of "defeating death with technology" has probably been thoroughly discredited as impossible, inherently ghoulish, or a combo of the two.
To be frank, all seances are designed to scam the grieving, AI or otherwise. If AI threatens the psychic industry I say let them fight.
