Now the new language merely bans “unsupported comparisons” between protected groups’ on the basis of their “inherent intellectual capacity”
Im sure we all noticed that this is also exactly one of those things which was allowed in the Rationalist places. And one of the reasons that it took them forever to get rid of slurinnameO on the ssc subreddit (E: He now moved to twitter where he has a terrifying 200k followers (cremieuxrecueil if you want to block the shithead)).
That sadly has not been my experience. I recall people on some gaming reddits being all 'you cannot stop the coming tide' re AI. And also recently got an indie game after nobody mentioned that the dev was using AI art for it (esp the recent updates, it also really sucks the art I mean) in the thread about it. But yes some of them are good on it, not a single entity after all
Im sure the Gamers (capital g intentional, derogatory) will love it. And then act really confused when games feel unresponsive, weird and floaty, and blame this on the devs and not their graphics card which is hallucinating most of the frames.
There even is a SSC post talking about how even professionally ran surveys have a 5% rate of bullshit (the lizardman constant, mentioned by Scott in 2013, and now in a lot more places (I think the idea is fine, just that Scott seems to draw a few to generalizing conclusions (in the article, not the conclusion) about classifying people as trolls/malicious vs 'sometimes people give a trollish/malicious answer. I also don't think the percentage is constant)). (Yes, SSC style Rationalists not internalizing the SSC lore is one of my pet peeves). And as Amoeba_girl said, this is the highlight of the post.
E: and as the LC was written in 2013, I really don't want to know how often Rationalists/LWers/etc have referred to a poll after that as being important. (And how often they have used the LC to dismiss polls used as arguments by others).
So looks like we ran out of ideas. We had a good run. Wonder what our idea score is compared to other alien species.
Wonder if his pivot to politics is because that is a better fit for his seemingly low attention span and high need for novelty/excitement or if it is because he is starting to realize that he can't keep promising this forever. (both of course).
Ah i recall somebody got mad when I mentioned traditionally capitalists will team up with fascists.
Wonder what their financials are actually
If they have a publicly traded part (iirc openai ownership was weird, but dont think they have a publicly traded part (yet)) they should do financial statements, before that doubt anybody can really tell.
Not that those statements are easy to read.
Now imagine if they actually paid for the training data as well.
So as libgen is blocked here in .nl by various providers (mine calls it thepiratebay for some reason), i look forward to all their llm being blocked.
