LLMs are good for all sorts of things.

and a bunch of waffle about unrelated ML advancements in robotics, and it confused you into giving me a shit lecture on tech I already know about? why?

from the (extensive) footnotes:

Occupy Wallstreet strikes me as another instance of the same kind of popular sneer culture. Occupy Wallstreet had no coherent asks, no worldview that was driving their actions.

it’s so easy to LessWrong: just imagine that your ideological opponents have no worldview and aren’t trying to build anything, sprinkle in some bullshit pseudo-statistics, and you’re there!

these were all 3-10 comments from the OP for my sort, but I don’t have a bluesky account so not being logged in might influence how I’m seeing the thread

god, the comments got heavily raided by various types of lazy TESCREAL:

  • how dare you doom all future generations to dying by pointing out that immortality under capitalism would be a living hell. you monster.
  • sure but life extension technology is real and on the horizon isn’t it? and then I can become functionally immortal! (no and shut up)
  • somehow, it’s bad optics to point out that rich people chasing immortality is fucking things up for everyone else

and not only did none of these fuckers get the point, they’re also making points that aren’t at all common outside of TESCREAL circles? like, no normal person I know naturally slips into the “but think of the Bayesian children” modality of thought.

is this just how Blue Sky is? I don’t browse it much outside of David’s threads.
