And top of actual tax cuts they also basically stopped tax enforcement on the rich and gutted the IRS

Pedantic nonsense on top of denialism, great job. You know damn well I am talking about the impact on humans and not actual destruction of the planet itself.

I am not making anything more difficult for anyone, this type of defense of your precious AI is though. You should personally go tell the kids in Memphis that are breathing the air from Elon's generators about the percentage of global electricity AI uses

They are wrong, and they must be stopped. We are close to the point of no return on doing irreversible damage to the planet, I do not care if people like the jangly Claude keys

This is an unbelievably troubling worldview and I hope not many other people are thinking this way

We are way past that point. We've lapped it a couple times

This is all incremental use. What have we gained? How many kids in Memphis should get asthma so you can code a little faster?

Where did I say it was a problem? Using chatgpt to plan an itinerary sounds terrible TO ME

Is it ready to provide power? No? Then I don't care what they are trying to do while they are burning a bunch of fossil fuels in the meantime

Just a few more weeks, a few more hundreds of billions, it's right around the corner....

>In any case, what really matters is that the true inner sanctum of human creativity hasn’t been breached and probably never will be, and also, that Sam Altman and Dario Amodei are contemptible little nerds.

>If you’re still a proponent of that doomed worldview, still aboard the sinking ship, I encourage you in the strongest possible terms to read yesterday’s other great contribution to AI discourse, besides the OpenAI Mathocalypse dump: namely, Scott Alexander’s open letter to Steven Pinker. I feel some responsibility for this, as the person who first introduced Steven Pinker to the existence of the rationalist community, and who also first introduced Steven Pinker and Scott Alexander to one another (they had both been fans of each other’s writing).

Whole lotta yikes
