Women trying to succeed in Silicon Valley AI and effective altruist spaces are reporting feeling serious social pressure to attend sex parties - where people have reported being sexually assaulted, like below. Events like Aella’s “Slutcon,” which is happening again this weekend.

EA is a weird sex cult, but most AI companies are not like that. They’re just startups full of 23 year old nerdy Indian guys

read (for those unaware): the ones most companies that produce code plug into, because they produce the best results for prices low enough that they don't need to bother shopping around. If you're a working SWE, as of this year, you're an oddity if you don't use their products
