this is also uh, why i found the fact that NSA had so many queer employees unsurprising, but to the new right/NatCons, it's basically a mystery why so many elite developers are in the queer community
The infosec guys at Google are the most left wing people I have ever worked with (except for a few crypto bros). Groups that value diversity, more lgbtq than most groups, and politically active. (My team after working in infosec didn't care about DEI nearly as much)

This is why the actual AI doom scenario is if the global memeplex ever spews enough anti-AI bs into the noosphere that the concept of AI itself gets pushed into the 'evil' category. Hyperstitioning supervillains because a bunch of people couldn't keep their emotions regulated
the consensus seems to be that models are not inventing evil from first principles, but rather they are formed by correlating vast swaths of human text and recognize that certain concepts are correlated w/one another (that's how LLMs work in the first place), so they see the evil ones as related

In The Labyrinth of Time, entering the Ziggurat without a lantern is supposed to show a black screen. However, the developers put in the wrong filename for the black screen, so it fails to render, showing a black screen instead

thinking about how my parents escaped vietnam, where the CIA destabilized my family's home country by spreading misinformation, and they landed in the united states, which is now getting destabilized bc someone in vietnam is spreading misinformation
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
