Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.
AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)
This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.
[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

Oh lol I googled it and Michael Lewis, the guy who wrote moneyball and the big short (book ver.), wrote “going infinite”, which required following SBF for “the better part of a year.” Apparently people think it is too sympathetic to SBF. Shame if so, I liked moneyball and the big short (movie ver.)
Well it is the season for previously reliable writers to write fluffbooks (see also Musk) so I would not be surprised if they cash out on their reputation by writing bad books, after all you can't give good reputation to your kids and grandkids, money otoh.
this is new to me and I like it.
