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.]

can we agree they Yudkowsky is a bit of a twat.

but also that there's a danger in letting vulnerable people access LLMs?

not saying that they should me banned, but some regulation and safety is necessary.

I literally don't care, AT ALL, about someone who's too dumb not to kill themselves because of a LLM and we sure as shit shouldn't regulate something just because they (unfortunately) exist.

It should be noted that the only person to lose his life in the article was because the police, who were explicitly told to be ready to use non-lethal means to subdue him because he was in the middle of a mental episode, immediately gunned him down when they saw him coming at them with a kitchen knife.

But here's the thrice cursed part:

“You want to know the ironic thing? I wrote my son’s obituary using ChatGPT,” Mr. Taylor said. “I had talked to it for a while about what had happened, trying to find more details about exactly what he was going through. And it was beautiful and touching. It was like it read my heart and it scared the shit out of me.”

Maybe susceptibility runs in families, culturally. Religion does, for one thing.
