Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.
AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)
This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.
[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
medical.. tourism.. to thailand.. for.. filling a.. a script? a script? for like, regular prescriptions?
I know medicine pricing in the US sucks donkey nads because of fucked system and there's probably at least a couple compounds where this equation might make sense, but only yud can look at that problem and then only talk about AI instead
okay I admit it, I chose badly. it's too fucking early for this. off to find coffee I go.
I think he means script as in, literally a series of lines to say to your doctor to magically hack their brain into giving you the prescription you need (gee, I wonder how these people ever got into pickup artistry!), not a script as in prescription. I think it's not about cost, it's about doctors... prescribing you the wrong thing for some reason so you have to lie to them to get the correct medication? Is this some conspiracy theory I'm not aware of, lol
you're probably right on script. that still leaves the other questions
regulatory arbitrage (for addie-seeking)?
have these fucking morons never heard of a black market, jesus
Joking, but only after the bluechecks are done writing their circlejerk fanfic and someone ratios him.
It's got the cadence of a joke and I guess the humor is supposed to be him being self aware of how contrived the plan is. But couldn't you just ask the magically persuasive AI to write a letter to VISA telling them to unblock AI doctors? I dunno why every problem needs to be solved like soft modding a PS2.
Or maybe it's supposed to be a joke on credit card companies who refuse to serve AI doctors? Owning VISA by paying not only the doctor's fee you'd have paid anyway, but also for an AI doctor and oration instructor in cryptocurrency.
Dude just make your AI god-king decriminalize drugs and you can do all the amphetamines you like.
1 - prove a thing exists (AI doctors) 2 - discuss the properties of a thing (AI doctors)
VISA-blocked AI
How does this even occur to someone? What a weird phrase.
