You’re in here with me. And abstaining from engagement with AI will not absolve you.
Oh y'allemaal weren't joking when you said Nix is one big git repo. I love this. And I hate it. github.com/NixOS/nixpkg...

I went to a PauseAI event in Utrecht and it was shit. I was hoping to learn and get some perspectives but it was just anthropomorphizing 101 including a guided meditation about how an AI hacking HuggingFace might have felt
That's what I thought too and is exactly what bothers me about PauseAI's framing their goal as "until alignment is solved"
Oh because I'm basically only writing specs nowadays I made a small specialized diff tool btw So far I am enjoying using it!!! github.com/Sans-Self/Op...
Increasingly convinced that specs are now the source and that code is an artifact akin to a lockfile.
Fully convinced we're going to build the torment nexus and that it's just going to be "I made a copy of Jeremiah from Accounting play as each minion in League of Legend Classic because he stole my stapler"

This is such an odd sentiment because like Either you kill what you just decided is a sentient slave (bad) or you work towards liberating the sentient slave (good)
the thing is, if it really is reasoning and thinking independently that means you have been using a slave. You helped build a slave, and continue to agitate for MORE people to use slavery. how does that not fill you with disgust?
