Oh you should be extremely worried.
God I was just reading that and it’s so hard but it’s so funny because that poor girl freya seems to have caused a crisis for Kent by being genuinely enthusiastic about AI bullshit and making friends with chatbots.
I wonder if Kent is going to have to do conversion therapy on his AI girlfriend now. Ethically of course.
Good news! We’ve solved consciousness.
Liteplo says the seed of RentAHuman was planted during his travels in Japan, where humans can lease other humans as escorts.
“The story that I could tell anyone to blow their mind is that you can rent a boyfriend or a girlfriend,” he said.
huh? his big epiphany is learning about prostitution?
yup this is pretty much what happens when you grind books for xp instead of actually reading them
some important characters in the narrative I’ve completely skipped over, mostly to do with the Nature of Art (in society) subplot, because nothing actually happens in them and it’s all social parties and talking
you … mother … fucker … so not only did you manage to miss the fact that this is a gay book, you completely skipped past one if not the most important theme in the novel which is language and the way people talk and write and the various ways they conduct themselves in different times and places, but oh nothing happens it’s just people talking aaaaaaaaaa
also this is a funny book! it’s funny! it’s not all maudlin meditations upon time and memory! fuck you!
warming up on philosophy with Simulacra and Simulation

If I understand correctly, the only reason they’re in such low orbit, and thus why there needs to be so fucking many of them, is to have much lower latency compared to geostationary satellites. You know, in case you need to play Quake on your satellite connection.
no fucking way
Nah, I’m not sure how much he was into eugenics (he was at the very least definitely in favour of killing invalid children), but grandiose and incoherent reactionary aristocratic bullshit is a 100% valid reading of Nietzsche.
I’m sorry but whatever you think about the actual content I’m going to be prescriptive and proclaim that the word manifesto should not be allowed to refer to opinions about management practices.
Would you say that in your life you find it hard to engage in conversation with women?
There’s no good reason for male circumcision, but female “circumcision” is not comparable at all. It’s almost never done safely and it more than often involves removal of the glans clitoridis (i.e. genital mutilation). Male circumcision does not usually remove the bellend. No one can possibly equate the two in good faith.
Anyways, yeah I would say the main driver is men’s rights activists, though unsurprisingly I’ve seen a fair share of antisemitism come with it. They’re more or less the same ideology anyway.
I believe in you Eliezer! You’re starting to recognise that the AI doom stuff is boring nonsense! I’m cheering for you to dig yourself out of the philosophical hole you’ve made!
a very gifted and experienced developer.
Don’t forget the most crucial part. The very gifted and experienced developer … is Jonathan Blow.
tl;dr i don’t actually believe the world is going to end but more importantly i’m Ender Wiggin
what the hecky
he’s so offended he’s been told he’s not god!
