alt Hacker NewsThe rest of us seem to be talking about the people like me who view the AI safety issue as "an unsafe AI will kill all humans". And the main article is about a guy who quit AI because it wasn't being careful enough, not because it wasn't moving fast enough to accelerate AI. So why would anyone be bringing up the "we must accelerate faster" people as the safety people in such a context, while trying to discredit them as a sex cult? I struggle to understand.
The linked articles in the thread are about AI sagety people I described. The guy who quit due to OpenAI not being careful enough is one of the people I talk about too.
The worry is not harm to people right now, like the kid worries you talk about. The worry is AI god emerging too soon before they can control it. And then it should be full speed on.

Because they are the same people. They talk like cult and act like cult. And the sex part is true too, so. Thry use words that sound good like safety, but their idea of safety is much different. They talk about alignement, but it is not what random person imagines under that term. Even their idea of future of humanity is very very specific and unusual.
That is why. And the sex part is just part of it all. And does matter because inner workings of wanna be industry guards matter.
