This bill requires the President to impose visa- and property-blocking sanctions on foreign persons that are knowingly responsible for, are complicit in, or have engaged in the involuntary harvesting of organs in China. The sanctions shall not apply to certain activities, such as authorized U.S. intelligence or law enforcement activities.

this is a completely standard silicon valley job title

*throwing a fedora like a shuriken* haha, consider yourself blocked good sir!

thought it was bad enough when the hackers got into my rabbithole, now this

thinking about how I was inoculated against part of ai hype bc a big part of my social circle in undergrad consisted of natural language processing people. they wanted to work at places with names like “OpenAI” and “google deepmind,” their program was more or less a cognitive science program, but I never once heard any of them express even the slightest suspicion that LLMs of all things were progressing toward intelligence. it would have been a nonsequiter.

also from their pov the statistical approach to machine learning was defined by abandoning the attempt to externalize the meaning of text. the cliche they used to refer to this was “the meaning of a word is the context in which it occurs.”

finding out that some prestigious ai researchers are all about being pilled on immanetizating agi was such a swerve for me. it’s like if you were to find out that michio kaku has just won his fourth consecutive nobel prize in physics

I uh… thought this rule had been in place the whole time. you mean the rest of you haven’t been…?

I used to hear about it IRL and now I don’t idk

no type of racist is more rabid than the genteel racist

Our sessions and guests spanned a wide range of topics: grifting and grifting, of course; but also grifting, grifting, racism, grifting, racism, racism, racism and more.

being disliked by racists is the optimal outcome my dude it’s actually good

mods can you please ban “david gerard” or whatever his name really is. ai hate is already out of hand without people coming to push their agenda like this

headline is inaccurate and downplays the incredible potential of ai. Google Gemini tried to kill this person AND their entire family

why would rationalists do something difficult and scary in real life, when they could be wanking each other off with crank fanfiction and buying castles manor houses for the benefit of the future

each sneer is drafted and redrafted for at least thirty hours prior to exposure to the internet, but in truth, that’s only the last stage of a long process. for example, master sneerers often practice their lip curls for weeks before they even begin looking at yud posts

he’s been openly a nazi propagandist pretty much since he took over twitter. they are hiding black crime stats from you.png, “this is the actual truth,” etc. without saying “I am literally a Nazi” or “we should do holocaust” I genuinely don’t know how much more open he can be about it
