I took a look at the “AGI 0.5-2 years away” quote, and he said he’s using the term in the “pre-2020” way, where we would of “debated whether or not Claude Opus is AGI or not” so not exactly robot god, but he’s still expecting LLMs to be able to act as advanced secretaries for the government. I have no clue what he means by “cluster” and if he was being literal with the molecular stuff or that’s just figurative language

Still stupid tho

very late response but this is very funny because Yud made a post about AGI being a meaningless term and you shouldn’t say things like “we have achieved AGI!” and then he turns around and posts this….why??? pick a lane man

now that is interesting

that one METR graph was also a big part of the AI 2027 “prediction”

less non-existent money going into OpenAI is always something I’ll take

FWIW im probably in/around camp two nowadays. I also do not think we should not give Altman and Musk money both because they’re conmen and weird alt-right techbros (I still remember Musk’s Nazi salute)

yeah I saw that post. really, really uncomfortable implications behind the ‘victimful crime’ stuff and only taking action after repeated offences. It’s straight up what big megachurches and other institutions do when they find out one of their top dogs has been grooming kids. no cops or reporters, just quietly expel them from the group

also, they erased the exchange? that is really not a good look

For someone who calls himself “genre savy” I have to ask why Eliezer and the EAs/rationalists keep getting played

“pro-billionaire” sorry I just threw up in my mouth a little. Also the billionaires are the ones rushing to create the thing so many rationalists claim is an existential risk, why the fuck would you support them??

like Epstein not letting Musk on the island because he was such a loser? god that would be hilarious

I might be crossing a line into conspiracy theory nut over here, but is it weird that both this and his response to the zizzian’s rape allegations have undertones of “i don’t know/im not completely sure”??

Eliezer’s response is up on reddit

following up the previous thread about Eliezer in the Epstein files, he’s responded on reddit

EDIT: this sneer has been deemed important enough for its own post so feel free to sneer there too

jesus fucking christ the depravity never ends. and there’s still three million more files of this bullshit

possible, iirc drugs were also involved so is it possible he got too high and doesn’t remember because of that?

for someone who believes prediction markets should make all our laws he’s certainly dodging a lot of predictions

at least I have SneerClub

the REAL reason Yudkowsky endorsed the “superbabies” project is so Epstein and his pedophile friends have more kids to fuck. It all makes sense now!

I dont like how I can envision this and find it perfectly plausible

it’s all coming together. every single techbro and current government moron, they all loop back around to epstein in the end
