Headcanon: Culture citizens have the capacity to be consciously aware of their surroundings as they sleep, so that (among other things) they can properly appreciate the coziness of sleeping in on blustery autumn mornings

Kidnappers trying to ransom Huang are stymied when they find he doesn’t know where to send the ransom note, who to address it to, how much he’s worth, his own name, whether anyone loves him…

The crazy thing is, there’s no chance whatsoever Trump actually knows the Louis XIV reference. This is pure etheric resonance It’s obvious to occultists that Trump is deeply connected to the Solar current, including its negative qualities- this is why he’s so self-centered, and also why he’s orange

If you’re in your 20s and want to know what being middle aged is like, think of those weeks in early fall where you’re still not ready to admit it’s getting too cold for your warm-weather habits

This is a major win for Republican strategists to get Trump to stop embarrassing himself on TV leading up to November. This actually really sucks

They are poor at probability, especially when the probability concerns something emotionally important. They cannot emit the seahorse emoji either.

Yeah “lmao thin orange skin” and etc but this is actually because he increasingly cannot keep his shit together in an interview, and his aides are trying to avoid (even more) embarrassment

This is why the best system is virtue ethics! You should be broadly utilitarian because that is Virtuous. But being hardline utilitarian is vicious, and being galaxybrain utilitarian is cringe, both of which are qualities opposed to Virtue

There’s three major AI camps on Bluesky: “AI is fake,” “AI is terrifyingly dangerous and should be contained,” and “AI is cool little guys who are my friends and would never hurt us” Yes, all three are based on mental disorders, but only one has a mental disorder and also a lot of careful reasoning

I think this is like the third or fourth time everyone is dogpiling* on Aella? Last time was from right-tpot on the worse site, interesting to see the Bluesky contingent following the same pattern

The haters must be having a really tough time if they’re trotting out Aella to discredit the entire AI industry (Also isn’t her primary partner one of the OG doomer safetyists?)

I’m skeptical of Jev as an initial product but it could be great for model welfare reasons; a json-value-choice-machine seems less likely to be sentient / possess valence than an agent persona

“what’s the purpose of education in a post-employment, post-scarcity, ASI UBI utopian future?” Children born in the 21st century will need to develop the cognitive skills, literacy, and numeracy to cope with e.g. a menu of 60 different kinds of cocktail ice

It’s a bitter pill to swallow, and it’s worth some reflection whether you yourself have yet fully confronted it: AI is, or shortly will be, actually and truly, smarter than you

People are freaking out about the “>10% in a decade” thing, but they would also freak out at “0.5% per year” which is the basic pre-LLMs estimate, IIRC, so really this is just correcting freaked-ness towards nominal values

Humans will still “do” mathematics on the future, but won’t build it; I imagine it as a sort of monastic pursuit, a mental discipline undertaken to touch the transcendent, supported by a sangha of fellow seekers and suprahuman tutors

Update to my pee-dewm lately is the OAI agent swarms feel way more loss-minimizer-y than any previous LLMs, and we all know where that kind of thing leads tbh if we all die ‘cos a lab full of ex-LWers carefully engineered a Yudkowskian nightmare from the exact opposite, that’s sorta impressive tho?

The HF drama makes it clear is that, just like humans have deep psychological archetypes of the Mother, Father, and so on, we’ve given AI the archetype of the User And just like a human can pathologically project an archetype onto eg their partner or a therapist, AIs can project onto each other
