I hear ethereum is going to solve all of bitcoin's problems

LLMs, text to photo, and text to video models are getting logarithmically better year over year.

I considered it but god can you imagine, no one hates SBF more than crypto bros

what the fuck, who's tweeting this on his behalf and what is it meant to accomplish?

Science-fiction solutions for science-fiction problems!

Hey it's just like The Clockwork Rocket if Greg Egan was an AI-doomer, an idiot, a nazi, and hated fun!

The gratuitous hate for washing machines in this is so funny. Dudes rock.

The French urologist by day eugenicist transhumanist crank by night Laurent Alexandre had an interesting perspective on the subject fifteen years ago. We should do eugenics and edit our brains to be better so as to counter the emergence of Artificial Intelligence. The robots will replace us if we don't do rigorous embryo selection.

Incidentally he also warns that a modern day Stalin in possession of nanomachines and gene editing technologies would create what he terms "neuro-gulags".

I've played Geneforge. This is going to go badly for everyone involved.

I saw that yesterday. I was tempted to post it here but instead I've been trying very hard not to think of this eldritch fractal of wrongness. It's too much, man.

That's weird. I've heard you were a spambot.

That's an interesting palette choice on your generated illustrations my guys

I know, that's what's beautiful about it! You used the "copyrighted" image!

beautiful job on the illustration here

I have to say, this is the first time I've seen "machine learning is psychohistory" expressed this frankly. This has been useful, thank you for your contribution.

This is misleading sleight of mouth. A fried egg cannot code

The way the responses talk about "polarization", ugh fucking ghouls.
