Ow yes, I know, I’m not dragging on CNC (which imho if properly executed also has limits, the dominant party isn’t suddenly allowed to get into cutting after they watched a slasher movie if that wasn’t part of an agreement for example). And I think you can already do that in part with the lovesense stuff, if people agree to 24/h them. (Not sure about the batterylife of those things then whoever).
standard
non consensual
Not sure we can combine that.
Satanic pick-up artist
Oh my…
My mind went to pickup stuff more, had not thought of the sex magic angle, but makes total sense. Esp combining the two.
his e-book
If you ever borrow some of these books from people, like Anna for example, it is amazing how badly written they are.
According to a site : https://apocaloptimist.net/the-apocaloptimist/
“An Apocaloptimist sees the trouble, but is optimistic we can do anything–including fixing all the world’s problems”
So if jesus wins the war during the second coming all problems are fixed.
(The thing is also nuts “we are the people actually working on fixing things [by hoping AGI will fix it all for us]”, my brother in Eschatology you are running a podcast sorry the guy is unrelated to the agi people theyvare just using his term).
E: does seem the site itself isnt about AI so they just stole this guys term. Nope they just took this clean energy guys term, sorry about sneering at him he seems to actually want to introduce clean energy and works hard (that seems to be a lot of conventions and blogging however, so buying ourself out of the capitalist problems) for it, as far as I can tell.
Ow god it is pop culture references all the way down. Tvthropes is skynet! You gotta tell them!
“billionaires build prosperity” even has the causal arrow wrong. Bezos didn’t start amazon as a billionaire for example.
I dont smurf any of this.
Ow god im a fool, totally read over what that meant. Thanks, jesus fuck (and to think I mentioned the animal rights people).
Yeah the god argument is wat invalidates it for me, then it no longer is an ancestor/rescue simulation, it is just a simulation thought experiment where everything goes. I’m basically trying to point out a motte/bailey here. Where they make arguments for specific simulation stuff where it is convenient for them, but as soon as there is pushback it is ‘but they have the power of gods’.
It gets even worse, as under our computing paradigm, you can’t properly make simulations of the whole world, it is too computationally expensive. But, the ‘real’ people being simulated are people working in those fields (because lets be honest, it isn’t violinists making these arguments, not the people the 4channers are claiming are real). Which means their simulation is useless, as the simulation is incorrect in their important work. It is like simulating newton, but instead of in gravity he lives in a space station without gravity. It is no longer a proper simulation of the man, it is just some weird experiment, and well, now the simgods can do anything and we can’t say anything useful about anything so it all falls apart into mental masturbation. Cops and robbers for adults ‘no you can’t shoot me I have a forcefield’.
E: wanted to look for a proper definition of ‘rescue simulation’ as now I’m running on half remembered sentences and vibes, so I looked into r/SimulationTheory/ and just looking at the subjects of the posts made me sad and made me realize how many people are going to lose a lot of their grip on reality. Hope they can come back (not everybody of course, look at the replies here to ‘chatgpt confirms sim theory’)
But then it wouldn’t be a proper simulation for those people being saved. This is the level of historical of a Ridley Scott movie.
Might also want to link the sneerclub thread on it there if you have it handy, I think it explained a few references and things, at least from what I can tell this take is very tongue in cheek, but I do not know enough about the subject to talk about it.
CFAR? The ‘We can learn a lot from scientology courses’ guys?
E: No wait that was Lukeprog
