Graham wtf are you doing the man is a racist. We dint praise hitler for standing up to authoritarianism re stalin.

Also amazing finger on the pulse of where the pendulum is swinging towards. Putting trumpian fascism and being pro trans rights/diversity in some false equivalence.

E: also lol at including alleged TP0 (cremieux) 'death to people who do adultery' in a list of anti authoritarians.

E2: double lol doing this a day after James Lindsay post a similar but even more disingenuous 'mea culpa' 'I learned nothing, and im gonna make it worse' post (he blames a shadowy global group of nazis (which he also capitalized) behind the people who influenced him for everything, while remaining as anti-cultural marxism as ever (in style of posting not direct words))

Considering the competition for apple run bug bounties this seems unwise.

E: the black market value of ios bugs can be up to a million dollars.

Looking at the reactions here, this is clearly a trick by Altman to have people use their systems more in the hope it costs them money. Don't do it people, don't add to the energy usage.

"According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible..."

E: this is the start of the bee movie script

Happy the article is skeptical of both the ai doomers and the ai as social interaction replacers.

Yeah that is why people called it confabulating, and not bullshitting.

Yeah but there is a gulf of difference between, he communicated badly and he lied

"Lied during the pandemic" wait what? Did LW do a 180 on covid, or is this a "they gave advice without knowing everything that was later shown wrong?" Because that is quite a dumb thing to say, also calling that leftwing is nuts. And last, did they memoryhole that Scott lied about the pandemic? He said people should stop smoking because it helped with covid. Not because he had proof, just because he thought it would be good if less people smoked.

E: oops wrong person.

E2: 100 upvotes, the conspiracy weird far right people have taken over.

I saw those but I think it totally removes the pros, also my second complaint is that conmen would simply not join, and this will not expose them as frauds and they cant be made to join as forced betting on yourself is a crazy idea. (Also increases upfront costs for everyone more).

It is all very much wargames.

Lol love how the good analysis just misses that people without disposable income are now excluded, it puts a price on participating in the public discourse.

The bullshit artist prevention also doesnt work, as we have a bullshit artist as the richest person in the world despite use being able to show all the bullshit he was wrong about but he still gets all the money. Despite there being no fsd, mars colony, covid over by april. Why would he bet on his takes that even now with all his exposed lies people still treat him like a nerdboy genius?

That sometimes the crazy headline rewrite is actually the articles headline is half the fun.
