for the record I also think that weapons development is broadly bad when you’re the one doing it, but at least you never (as far as I know) made a big deal about how you were definitely not going to do that, and then did it anyway :joy_cat:

(an extended debate on the morality of weapons development probably runs into the politics rule so if you really want to fight about this then DM me I guess? :joy_cat: )

I hate all living beings, so the existence of aliens doesn’t change my core beliefs.

oh we’ll be less racist towards each other for sure. a little bit. there will be some racists. some people straight up do not see big picture they will care more about the kid on their lawn than the Splurgs, a race made out of Solid Steel coming down from the sky with 200 wings

listen neutering them is optimal as it clears up lag efficiently while preventing relationship maluses it’s purely mechanical

#19956

obviously the immoral actions of big AI companies are bad, but the fact the whole thing has completely failed to meaningfully substantiate its’ own value is pretty fucking significant too

#19957

#19958

wow it’s almost like ‘having individual humans analyze things that are as Large as a Large Language Model’ doesn’t. work. at least not well/efficiently enough to make a ton of progress. :pika:

Arete being mad is so funny

#19960

that doesn’t mean we throw the woodchipper into the fucking woodchipper

#19961

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they’d never expect it.

i don’t even disagree with that premise; that’s obvious, but at no point have i advocated for doing this shit by hand, I simply disagree with the idea that you have to throw another model at it
