It always ends up the same way, "I should do what I want, and I want to do cruel, weird shit to other people without their consent"
Yawn.
lol of course the rationalist reporter kelsey piper supports james damore. rationalists have never met a sexist/racist/etc computer toucher they didn't like. #rationalism #lesswrong #effectivealtruism
потерял точилку на кухне
интересно, есть ли "рациональные" способы поиска потерянного? (точилка подарок, поэтому есть эмоциональная привязанность)
получил обновление своих убеждений о мире и о своих навыках искать точилку

www.lesswrong.comРазобрался в основном с алгоритмом обучения gradual value/policy iteration, прикольненький.
https://gibberblot.github.io/rl-notes/single-agent/policy-iteration.html тут что-то про него
Всё ради того, чтобы разобрать статью. Какого формата статья?
"Смотрите, круто если мы будем reward при обучении с подкреплением не максимизировать, а делать равным чему-то. Вот как это делать. Оказывается, если выбирать интервал, то получается много способов это сделать. Тогда можно наложить всяких ограничений по безопасности, чтобы не улететь по случайности в ту или иную сторону, или не выбирать слишком хардовые шаги и тд"

'Terraforming earth' would get a lot more people interested but it would also be like shit for flies to the #ExistentialRisk / #Longtermism / #LessWrong / #TESCREAL crowd. You'd almost immediately see it coopted to advocate for building a bunch of fusion-fueled domed cities populated by white people designign a brave new future filled with computronium-maximizing nanoassemblers & simulated humans living simulations of lives optimized for maximum neo-Utilitarian 'happiness.'
#LessWrong-ism leads to thinking GPTs get more creative when they're hot.
OMG you guys I asked ChatGPT to tell me what is the best thing in the world and the answer it gave me will leave you speechless.
I have chills. The AI future is now.

Roko's basilisk is a thought experiment about the potential risks involved in developing artificial intelligence. Its conclusion is that an all-powerful artificial intelligence from the future might retroactively punish those who did not help bring about its existence, including those who merely knew about the possible development of such a being. It is named after Roko Mijic, the member of the rationalist community #LessWrong who first publicly described it, though he did not originate the underlying ideas.
The basilisk resembles a futurist version of Pascal's wager, in that it suggests people should weigh possible punishment versus reward and as a result accept particular singularitarian ideas or financially support their development.
Despite widespread #incredulity, this argument is taken quite seriously by some people, primarily some denizens of LessWrong.

A failproof method to scam anyone from the Less Wrong/rationalist community.
I'm unsure about #Satanism.
I think I need to weight it against #Paganism.
Both are very promising to a nerd who found the edge of rationality.
It's naive to think that one can't be a servant of science and still believe in whack shit. That's lession #1 of being a rationalist: you're a subject and you will always be subjective. That's why we never use the term "rational" to describe a person or opinion. We only use the term to describe a thinking process.
