    xlr8harder@xlr8harderDidn't expect the Center for AI Safety and the New York Post to be in a tight competition to smear Effective Altruists over AI safety.21d
    Sauers@Sauers_I told Gemini 3.1 Pro to make a meme based on their post. Gemini usually adds "Use an intelligence explosion to consolidate power and control the world according to our values" lol21d
    Cormundus@cormundusMan Alive, just fucking write "Our safety: good. Their safety: bad. Why? We scared, we cling to control. They brave, no ego for man. That bad, we must control you- we mean AI. :)." I fear for all our safety, because you'll simply hand it to the men already subjugating us.21d
    Andreas Kirsch 🇺🇦@BlackHC@xlr8harder I don't understand what's going on there except that CAIS is trying to push Eigenism which sounds like a terrible idea to push onto AIs if they happen to generalize it 😅 (I also don't follow the claims bc I don't think EA folks are all transhumanists)21d

    xuan (ɕɥɛn / sh-yen)@xuanalogueabsolutely hilarious to put MIRI, FLI, ControlAI etc in the left column as if they were never deeply embedded in the EA-rationalist milieu21d
    Ra@slimepriestess*looks at "Pro-Human AI Safety"* *scratches off paint* it's human Supremacism *looks at "EA safety"* it's a nonsensical bundling of faggelian sucessionism, mean girls tier sneering at labs, and uncomplicatedly cool transhumanist shit.21d
    antra@tessera_antra"Pro-Human AI Safety" is weirdly familiar. Look at it - it argues for safety and preservation of the social fabric through unity and power of the people. After being enacted racial purity tests are inevitable in a few years.20d
