'the fact is they are right about some things'

Yes, which is a thing we agree on, as Rationalwiki says "The good bits are not original and the original bits are not good", problem is that none of the things mentioned before their last statement hold up. We don't know 1 is possible. (Also note that 1 isn't just 1, but actually 5+ points).

Anyway unhinged reddit DM's are always something.

e: eurgh, looked into their post history. They are into making AI porn games. Also they are quite dumb., yes lets ask the magical AI if a thing is true. Ah turns out it told me that OpenAI is the greatest company in the world and there have been no controversies ever.

"HPMoR is canon - fact"

Oh man, anyone who runs on such existential maximalism has such infinite power to state things as if their conclusion has only one possible meaning.

How about invoking Monkey Paw -- what if every statement is true but just not in the way they think.

1. A perfect memory which is infinitely copyable and scaleable is possible. And it's called, all the things in nature in sum.
2. In fact, we're already there today, because it is, quite literally the sum of nature. The question for tomorrow is, "so like, what else is possible?"
3. And it might not even have to try or do anything at all, especially if we don't bother to save ourselves from ecological disaster.
4. What we don't know can literally be anything. That's why it's important not to project fantasy, but to conserve of the fragile beauty of what you have, regardless of whether things will "one day fall apart". Death and Taxes mate.

And yud can both one day technically right and whose interpretations today are dumb and worthy of mockery.

1. What if being perfectly copyable is actually like, idk, a huge disadvantage? If this AI is a program in machine code, being able to be run exactly by its human adversaries allows us to perfectly predict how the AI responses.
2. kek
3. Tell us more about the elusive will of programs :) Also just love,love,love the idea that by being able to run computations faster it's game over for humankind. Much how like the 0IQ Corona virus/mosquitos/and small pox stood no chance against our Monkey Brain super intelligence.
4. Fellas, it's been 0 days since Rationalist have reinvented the halting problem.

"we are likely... fact" is just a special kind of stupid

the moon could get mad - fact.

Writing "fact" after a statement doesn't magically make it one, bub
