The U.S. AI industry is being run by a batshit rationalist sex cult, and no, I am not being hyperbolic - they’re genuinely Like That:

It’s a sex cult because these people are all fucking each other

They're also all wired to the gills on ketamine and uppers and eighteen different bespoke hallucinogenics and other chemicals you've never heard of, think Hunter S Thompson rattling off what all's in his stash in Fear & Loathing, except it's got weirder stuff than that and also they're not funny.

No no no I'm not a drug addict that's a poor people thing. I'm a rationalist explorer of chemically altered states which is why I'm always layering at least three or four on top of each other every waking moment.

oh yes

They'd still be weird but that'd be relatively more normal if they were just good old fashioned alcoholics instead. Bring back the day drinking elites.

Bring back hippies unironically calling themselves psychonauts tbh, I'd take that over this any day of the week

Can you imagine if all these guys dropped acid or did DMT? Then they could meet some real machine elves instead of inventing fake ones.

Maybe we can invite them to all do peyote in Death Valley and let nature take its course.
