Big names in AI and Silicon Valley tech announced yesterday that they're launching a boarding academy for 16 to 22 year olds. (Would you trust the people in this scene with keeping an eye on minors?) theacademysf.com

"We were letting actual 8th graders sneak into our wild drug and sex parties at our Silicon Valley AI group house" is the most eyebrow-raising quote among many from that New York Times piece, IMO. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/21/t...

Let's recall that apparently Sam Altman was in a Discord with a 13 year old in 2020 bsky.app/profile/fain...

I have a theory about how Eric Zhu was getting into AI group house parties at the age of 13, per the recent New York Times piece: he says he was in a Discord group chat with Sam Altman (and others) at that age. techcrunch.com/2024/07/22/1...

Yes, the Andreessen Horowitz-backed big tech boarding school that takes students as young as 16 is, in fact, advertising Tyler Cowen - he of the "if you wish to see a virgin on-screen, this is one of your better chances" creep article - as faculty.

i went to Simon's Rock (an early college) which at least wasn't run by massively rich creeps, and they had plenty problems with drugs/alcohol/bad behavior....this will be so much worse

my ex went to simon’s rock, and yeah he said it could be kinda wild but also it was an actual accredited school run by people who cared deeply about actual education including the humanities

idk, a lot of SRC students were very wealthy and almost none were from the berkshires
