“In the new version of Newcomb’s problem, you have to choose between a box containing the world of My little babyeater: Friendship is infanticide and a box containing an Unfriendly upload of Robin Hanson.”
I’ll be honest, given Robin’s apparent enchantment with em hell and how the ‘poor also smile’, I think I’m going to go with turning the world into My Little Babyeater: Friendship is Infanticide. Hey, lots of societies historically practiced infanticide and were decent enough places to live.… At least that would preserve most current human values.
Oh my god this was even better
