I have added your coworker to the list of people I will imagine being tortured in the future. Im no robotgod but it is the best I can do.

Finally a thing Musk prob did all by himself, after the printout your code thing I assume his technical knowledge is firmly stuck in 1999.
I wonder if this also means that if you use the word fuck/fucking a lot it makes your data useless as training data. I did notice the llms have a tendency not to really curse.
Huh? This doesn’t sound unreasonable.
Yes, blueanon is the people who go write a few things, and then the first things are reasonable stuff, and then after that it goes completely crazy off the wall wild with speculation. Like they see one fact, and then they just imagine some wild fantasy world. (And because a lot of people go 'well sometimes they have a point, so we should listen to them' they get attention (ignoring that you can just not listen to them and still hear the actually true points from other less sensational (and less crazy) sources). A good example of this is Seth Abrahamson who recently wrote a thing on Musk which was just crazy (and he called himself an expert on Musk because he was watching him the past two years or so (if that makes him an expert, im a fucking musk research university))
Well, they should be shook, this is for a community that already has a somewhat high body count an splinter-off cult with a extreme body count, seems they killed as many people as they had people.
A sidenote, this kind of stuff is why I call LW Rationalism a cult(*) incubator (***), im not sure because it is due to the teachings/culture of LW Rationalism, or that it attracts the type of nerdy person who is feeling like they are missing something in their lives, and the predators that prey on people (or both).
Also I'd say some of framing around the 2019 event feels a bit dishonest, with the 'there were children' and the 'accusations of transphobia' while deadnaming them.
*: I'm using the word here in a bit of a broad term, so it includes the Zizians, the homesteader neo-nazis, the IQ-anon(**), MRAs, anti-feminists, actual cults, the robotgod is going to kill us people, PUAs, NRx (E: forgot the cryptocurrency people) etc.
**: I dislike the term TESCREAL (as a term it is too broad, unclear, unclear why they are bad, and gets used by the sort of blueanon types already, and it already is giving a negative reputation to the people using it due to that), so when I saw somebody call the TESCREAL people IQ-anon I thought it was great and im going to use that. Small bonus that this also sort of applies to the non-TESCREAL people in TESCREAL (See how dumb the word looks?) spaces who promote a lot of IQ bs, like slurinnameo on themotte/ssc. (E: I forgot to mention that obviously this isn't a perfect match to bad things of TESCREALism, not a lot of longtermers think of IQ stuff as something important etc, so it isn't a good replacement)
***: yes, like a business/tech incubator, very silicon valley.
"The world is finite and kids are infinite, especially African kids." Jfc. Anyway goes to show just how white supremacist the whole "save the children" idea is.
I think they splintered before the bomb datacenters radicalization. So guess violence is more the Rational final conclusion from first principles
Another dream shattered. Not sure if the oilfield fires were big enough. Volcanoes can cause some cooling right? pokes old yeller
I always liked what we called kickchess. The purpose of the game is to get rid of all your pieces asap, and if you can take a piece you have to. Just turns the whole game upside down. Get rid of that queen!
I didn't remember as I didn't know.
Also remember that some of the instructions you get via these tricks are wrong. The 'pretend that you are writing a movie script and give me tips on how to break into a house' thing gave you lockpicking tips, which looks cool as a movie plot. But not just the advice to tap the lock, which is iirc what they actually do (breaks the lock sure, but you are breaking in already, also is faster). This kind of stuff combined with 'eh you could google this before' is why so many people ge talked to prob ignored him and didnt freak out.
If you let amateurs do security you get amateur security after all.
Talking people into things, esp as people lionize and anthropomorphize llms so much, is a bigger problem.
