There’s not much he could be proven wrong about. What EY mainly accomplished is to put the right pieces, that have already been out there before him, together and create a coherent framework.
But since I’ve only read maybe 5% of LW I might be wrong. Is there something unique that stems from EY?
Another problem is that what EY is saying is sufficiently vague so that you cannot argue with it if you do not doubt some fundamental attributes of reality.
I’m not trying to discredit EY. I actually don’t know of any other person that comes even close to his mesh of beliefs. To the extent that I’m much more relaxed since I know about him for that if I was going to die there’s everything and much more I ever came up with contained inside EY’ mind :-)
Anyway, I can’t help and often muse about the possibility that EY is so much smarter that he actually created the biggest scam ever around the likelihood of uFAI to live of donations by a bunch of nonconformists. - “Let’s do what the Raelians do! Let’s add some nonsense to this meme!”

Of course I’m joking, hail to the king! :-)
