Yaay, one step closer to torment nexus.

For a person so eager to psychoanalyze others, the author sure seems oblivious to his own biases.

I have learned about YCombinator, hacker news, Paul Graham, and startups in general through one of his essays. I was first blown away by the brilliance and clarity of his writing, and only then did I learn that he's a prominent tech figure.

So many years later, I still haven't read a better writer (except maybe Scott Alexander). So, at least from my perspective, if anyone has the authority to write about good writing, it's this guy.

You gotta think about it in terms of cost vs benefit. How much damage will a malicious AI do, vs how much value will you get out of non-neutered model?

Is that really a contradiction? We all have our ideals, and we all fail to live up to them sometimes, because life can be brutal.
