Aaaa! I’m used to Arial or whatever Windows’ default display font is. The larger stroke weight is rather uncomfortable to me.
metachirality
Yarvin was not part of the CCRU. I think Land and Yarvin only became associates post-CCRU.
Maybe make a post on the EA forum?
It seems like if the SCP hypothesis is true, block characters should cause it to act strangely.
Does it not have any sort of metadata telling you where it comes from?
My only guess is that some of it is probably metal lyrics.
Is this an LLM generation or part of the training data?
I don’t see how 3 follows.
That’s because we don’t have the intelligence to exterminate ants (without causing more problems.)
On another note, if an artificial superintelligence needed a human for something, it would probably be able to find someone it could convince on the spot, no pre-built religion needed.
We have nothing to offer. Anything we can do, an artificial superintelligence can do better, with space and energy and atoms we irritatingly take up.
Why would we want to worship AI?
I think the thing that actually makes people more rational is thinking of them as principles you can apply to your own life rather than abstract notions, which is hard to communicate in a Wikipedia page about Dutch books.
Emmett Shear might also count, but he might merely be rationalist-adjacent.
IMO trying the problem yourself before researching it makes you appreciate what other people have already done even more. It’s pretty easy to fall victim to hindsight bias if you haven’t experienced the difficulty of actually getting anywhere.
they figure out planting and then rationally collaborate with each other?
I feel like they would end up converging on the same problems that plague human sociality.
I think asociality might prevent the development of altruistic ethics.
Also it’s hard to see how an asocial species would develop civilization.
This reminds me of Moravec’s paradox.
You should read Greg Egan’s excellent novel Permutation City.
I think working on safety roles at capabilities orgs is mostly mutually exclusive with a pause, so I don’t think this is that remarkable.
Sorta? Usually the idea is that the presence or absence of hardware determines the anthropic probability of being that conscious process, otherwise you would expect to be some random arbitrary Boltzmann brain-like conscious.
Also this is an immediate corollary of the mathematical universe hypothesis, which says our universe is a mathematical structure.
Why not generate it after it’s posted publically?
