A year and two and a half months since his Time magazine doomer article.
No shut downs of large AI training - in fact only expanded. No ceiling on compute power. No multinational agreements to regulate GPU clusters or first strike rogue datacenters.
Just another note in a panic that accomplished nothing.

Really feels like he wants to say something but too scared to commit.
genital inspectors, but Rationally tee em
I mean, I agree with the sentiment behind the sarcasm, but also feel the same way about the internet in general. Sometimes it's learning the same lesson in a new context. But Roko's basilisk though? Quite a cliff.
Bro the believed Nvidia hype and came out as a doomer lmao.
truly envy your ignorance on this individual
it's a movie about (only in part but imo motivated by) Spike Jonze's break up with Sofia Coppola. It's neither positive or negative about AI per se. AI is a narrative vehicle for the sense of falling in love, growing apart, being left behind, and the aftermath of that break up. At the end, the AI lovingly says goodbye and leaves humanity behind.
and yet still no international agreement to first strike rogue data centers smh
s'alright, tho. It was always a cynical marketing strat to convert hyper-online nerd anxiety into investor hype. may want to check on Big Yud. Idk if anyone has heard from him since his Time Mag article coming onto a year old now, not that I tried.
Some of the risks the team worked on included "misuse, economic disruption, disinformation, bias and discrimination, addiction, and overreliance."
Conspicuous lack of grey goo or hyper-persuasive brainhacking. Still really good at being confidently wrong about basic shit!

2, Take the more beautiful or poetic lines and dump them into a note
This in the style of Taylor Swift:
So I broke up with Alice over a long conversation that included an hour-long primer on evolutionary psychology in which I explained how natural selection had built me to be attracted to certain features that she lacked. I thought she would appreciate this because she had previously expressed admiration for detailed honesty. Now I realize that there's hardly a more damaging way to break up with someone. She asked that I kindly never speak to her again, and I can't blame her.
It's cool to know that this isn't a real concern and therefore in a clear vantage of how all the downstream anxiety is really a piranha pool of grifts for venture bucks and ad clicks.
