Reading the OP wiki article looks exhausting. Is it just the ontological argument but for juicy computing? As in, juicy enough for brain simulation or AGI or whatever.

Not willing to look into the abyss tonight, basically.

If Yud did his cult sermons IRL:

yud walks out onto stage, wearing a hat with a 🚫 sign with a period under it

Crowd: “Leader is wearing the silly hat!!! It’s a silly sermon! Prepare to laugh!!!!”

Yud: “There should be a gulag for low IQ people and Swedes!”

Crowd: “Amazing joke, leader! We must now justify the humor!!!”

I stand against confiscatory taxes, totalitarian collectives, and the ideology of the inevitability of the death of every individual,

Tangent: is there a term or phrase for when Occam’s Razor is misused or quoted incorrectly? My prior is that any time I see it I assume it’s going to be misused.

Michelle Gansle, chief data and analytics officer for McDonald’s, had bragged that her company had used AI to help them stop $50 million in fraud in a single month.

On one hand, it is good that people are becoming aware of these crazos and the amount of influence they have. On the other hand I am definitely feeling that “I heard of this band first!” kind of jealousy a little.

There is a lot about the hard drive (and imc i guess) that I am learning from this thread. I did not know about any of the goings on at the hard drive. I’m trying to find articles and so forth about what’s been happening with hard drive but would love some pointers.

(Also I shared this based on the title and not the text, my bad.)
