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.]

I once saw what I think was a BBC show where an Englishman visited cool tribes and lived with them. Tough, outdoorsman.
The only episode I saw he was in Mongolia and it had what I think was unintentional humour. The local vet - who had been the local party representative during the Communist era and now held some other title - placed him in a family that could need a hand during migration, as their teenage daughter had a disability. So on he went on horseback and he made it there with just a bunch more pauses then the Mongolians would have preferred. But once there, the best his hosts could say about his efforts to help was "Well, he is strong. And he is trying."
By the looks of it, the Mongolians could not believe how a big, strong guy could be so utterly useless.
I once saw a show where a tribesman had his penis stretched out and was rolling it up on a stick
And did it appear he needed any help from dorky software engineers personally going to villages to “help out”?
you may laugh but software engineers are people with problem solving skills. I bet they could have shown up and within a minute said "what if we made this stick part of the internet of things"
This is why I'll never succeed in software engineering. My first thought was to make the penis part of the internet of things.
