Death.

The default consequence of AGI's arrival is doom. Aligning a super intelligence with our desires is a problem that no one has solved yet.

The 5mb is a per file size. You can still upload unlimited files as long as they're less than 5mb.

Not OP but this felt like a simple test - https://twitter.com/backus/status/1091203973246111744

There's the Vividness of Visual Imagery Quiz but that's self-administered and is a questionnaire.

My favorite is http://worrydream.com/

Here's a twitter thread containing some 'quirky' personal websites, not quite portfolios though.

> I find it amusing & ironic that they're pursuing games of efficiently & strategically killing enemies as examples of their successful progress. ;-)

Except that the amusement and irony would cease to exist once you have some idea of what's happening behind the scenes.

The AI doesn't know it's "killing enemies". For it, it's just something that results in the increase of a numerical reward signal.

I wanted to add the observation that all the restricted heroes are ranged. Necrophos, Sniper, Viper, Crystal Maiden, and Lich.

Since playing a lane as a ranged hero is very different from playing the same lane as a melee hero, I wonder whether the AI has learned to play melee heroes yet.

The lure of making money as a child is a temptation far stronger than most can resist. If I had access to the things these guys had, I can totally see myself going down the exact same path.

Now, a little older, the prospect of fines that will take a lifetime to repay and/or prison is way more deterring. As a kid, you just never think about it.

> Not sure how much it's "paying off"

Read what you love until you love to read. Then you can move onto books that seem that they might have some pay off.

True, I thought it was something new that Sketch had released at first glance.

Just curious, is your life better for having spent that time learning more about politics? What prompted you to get started?

Asking as somebody that doesn't care much about politics but not averse to the idea of making an effort to understand it if the benefits>cost.
