Two ferrymen and three boats are on the left bank of a river. Each boat holds exactly one man. How can they get both men and all three boats to the right bank?

Officially, you can't. Unofficially, just have one of the ferrymen tow a boat.

Nitpicking, but at what point do we start calling it race pseudoscience?

"Hating Black People" would be a more fitting name.

I was tempted to write this up for Pivot but fuck giving that blog any sort of publicity.

On the one hand, I can see you not wanting to give the fucker attention, on the other hand, AI's indelible link to fascism is something which needs to be hammered home and shit like this gives you a golden opportunity to do it.

(your shocked Pikachu was borked, I ended up fixing it out of frustration. Took me a couple attempts - standard formatting fucks it up no matter what, but code's kinder to it)

EDIT: have they considered offering a huge cash prize to anyone who proves them wrong

My mind's saying they aren't gonna give away the money no matter what, my heart wants to see transgirls bully these nerds mercilessly

Honestly, I think we need another winter. All this hype is drowning out any decent research, and so all we are getting are bogus tests and experiments that are irreproducible because they’re so expensive. It’s crazy how unscientific these ‘research’ organizations are. And OpenAI is being paid by Microsoft to basically jerk-off sam Altman. It’s plain shameful.

If an AI winter does happen, I expect it'll be particularly lengthy/severe. Unlike previous AI hype cycles, this particular cycle has come with some serious negative externalities (large-scale copyright infringement, climate change/water consumption, the flood of AI slop, disinformation, etc).

Said externalities have turned the public strongly against AI, to the point where refusing to use it has become a viable marketing strategy.

You want my suspicion, any further AI research will probably be viewed with immediate distrust, at least for a while.

what the heck EA forum doesn’t have a block feature? That’s just… ew.

You don't need a block feature if you're as insufferable as the average EA /j

This Is Financial Advice would've been a much better video to make that point with - that video was about a financial doomsday cult centered around a dying mall retailer, and doesn't start going into anything particularly heavy until near the end.

The Fake Nerd Boys of Silicon Valley isn't directly about TESCREAL, but its dissection of Silicon Valley's complete and utter misunderstanding of sci-fi/fantasy does still work wonders against Yudkowsky et al's views IMO.
