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 a fan of yud but getting daily emails from delulus would drive me to wish for the basilisk

I wonder what's gonna happen first, the bubble popping or Yudkowsky getting so fed up with gen AI he starts sneering.

He hasn't missed an opportunity to ominously play up genAI capabilities (I remember him doing so as far back as AI dungeon), so it will be a real break for him to finally admit how garbage their output is.

i'm not sure if AI is a bubble that will pop no matter if we do or don't get imminent AGI so probably the 2nd one but he still has a while longer of having to play the rational intellectual
