amazing how much shittier it is to be in the rat community now that the racists won. before at least they were kinda coy about it and pretended to still have remotely good values instead of it all being yarvinslop.

it would be nice to be able to ever invite rat friends to anything but half the time when I've done this in the last year they try selling people they just met on scientific racism!

Don't worry too much, none of their timelines, even for things that they are actually working on as opposed to hoping/fundraising/scamming that someone will eventually work on, have ever had any relationship to reality.

    Im not worried, im trying to point out that kids take time to grow and teach and this makes no sense. (Im ignoring the whole 'you dont own your kids, so making superbabies ro defeat AI is a bit yikes im that department').

    Even for Kurzweils 'conservative' prediction of the singularity the time has run out. 2045. It os a bit like people wanting to build the small nuclear reactors to combat climate change. Tech doesnt work yet (if at all) and it will not arrive in time compared to other methods. (At least climate change is real, or well sadly enough).

    But yes, it is a scam/hopium. People want to live forever in the godmachine and all this follows from their earlier assumptions. Which is why the AI doomers and AI accelerationists are on the same team.
