  • now you have it straight from source:

    e/acc, distinct from EA, is a rival ideology about technology.

    (somewhere in this mix someone called me e/acc. i am not. if you’re going to classify me in this space, i am something like a Kurzweilian h+

    e/acc is a troll ideology for upsetting EA people and scamming pmarca.)

    then he complains about sneerclub for some reason, damn i can’t guess why

    LLMs doing Great Things Worth Ruining The World Over in medical research

    there are entire wet labs whose software stack predates openai. go and ask anyone who works in a moderately long operating lab if there’s any load bearing Thing that runs under windows xp control or older (there will be). there are some extremely limited applications of pre-llm ml in drug design, but it’s trained on entirely different type of data and it does entirely different thing and i’d say it’s not load bearing. these things are expected to be fed with new data from testing new things provided in previous iterations and if you hit something you’ll get there on your own. all of that data is noisy

    unfortunately this does not make a great conversation starter. whaat? a cult took over an entire government of south korea? this could never happen here
