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.]

Timnit briefly weighs in about being included in the doc, apparently she regrets it and says the filmmakers "sprinkle some [AI skeptics] in like chocolate chips to perform ethics".
She also calls Yud a eugenicist cult leader with nothing to show for.
Damn, she went in on Yud (not that he doesn’t deserve it)
I also found this article about the doc in the replies of that post https://buttondown.com/maiht3k/archive/a-tale-of-two-ai-documentaries/ and it’s a very interesting read
"[a] cult leader who has nothing to show for except for his eugenicist self and writing a Harry Potter fan fiction"
I mean, that could be anyone.
