> Time doesn’t exist. Do the people writing this garbage live in a vacuum? Is it AI slop?

Maybe don't dismiss an idea as garbage before trying to understand it.

One of the ideas here is that time is an emergent phenomenon, like how temperature and gas pressure seem real at a macroscopic level, but disappear once you look closer. They simply describe the average kinetic energy of all the molecules in the area.

The _hypothesis_ is that time could be similar.

This obviously seems silly in hindsight. Warnings about radium watches or asbestos sound less silly, or even wise. But neither had any solid scientific studies showing clear hazard and risk. Just people being good Bayesian agents, trying to ride the middle of the exploration vs. exploitation curve.

Maybe it makes sense to spend some percentage of AI development resources on trying to understand how they work, and how they can fail.

Animals eat their disabled children. Humans should also do it then, since it's normal or natural.

Around 100k people die from age-related disease every day. I'd be careful to dismiss that as not a problem.

That is assuming the accelerating AI stays under human control.

We're racing up a hill at an ever-increasing speed, and we don't know what's on the other side. Maybe 80% chance that it's either nothing or "simply" a technological revolution.

Yes, that's one of the tricks.

The youngest was born in 2019, the same year he was incarcerated (April 2019). Pregnancy lasts 9 months, so even if the child were born in early 2020, there would be no reason to assume infidelity.

He admitted to lying about it? Do you have a source for that? I couldn't find anything.

I understand the problem is that, like String Theory, this framework has a practically unlimited supply of variables that can simply be tuned to fit existing experiments, while not offering any way to be tested.
