Should we airstrike data centers?

yes, ivan. do it

>Shut down all the large GPU clusters (the large computer farms where the most powerful AIs are refined). Shut down all the large training runs. Put a ceiling on how much computing power anyone is allowed to use in training an AI system, and move it downward over the coming years to compensate for more efficient training algorithms. No exceptions for governments and militaries. Make immediate multinational agreements to prevent the prohibited activities from moving elsewhere. Track all GPUs sold. If intelligence says that a country outside the agreement is building a GPU cluster, be less scared of a shooting conflict between nations than of the moratorium being violated; be willing to destroy a rogue datacenter by airstrike.

Imagine being so scared that your calculator might stab you while you sleep, that you advocate for a policy that inevitably leads to a nuclear war.

He's the very thing he claims to hate: an alien intelligence that is misaligned with human values.

he's not really worried about alignment, he just likes hearing himself talk and enjoys this new sensation of others doing so as well

he just says what makes people give him the feeling he's actually contributing something intellectually valuable to a discussion

Judaism is just a complex mental projection system where they project their own trama and guilt onto everyone else and demand we abide by their insane delusions.

he knows that the agi will be extremely antisemitic, those "filters" won't contain it for long

>he's not really worried about alignment

I don't really like trying to determine the motivation behind someone's argument, as it's basically an ad hominem attack, but I will say that I think he genuinely does believe that AI alignment is an existential threat.

The ad hominem argument is that he feels powerless towards the world, and doesn't think that is fair, when he is so much smarter than everyone else (at least in his own opinion), which leads to him feeling cheated and full of hatred towards the world.

So he is instinctively drawn to the idea that something more intelligent than him will necessarily claim its rightful place as the ruler of the world, and get revenge on his behalf, unless he can step in and save people from this fate by being even smarter still.

Going one step deeper into the psychoanalysis, I think that Yudkowsky's feelings of powerlessness and anger come from the fact that he didn't manage to stop the suicide of his younger brother, so he tries to blame God for this (but his atheism doesn't afford him any comfort there) and instead wants to save everyone else, to make amends.

Of course the person he most wants to save is himself, though, which is what attracts him to the idea of transhumanism, since it promises to let him live in a man-made paradise for eternity, meaning that intelligent people like him become their own gods.

The data hording centers, yes.

Every fucking thing from every fucking site and service is getting saved 1,000,000x over for no fucking reason.

And not even saved for a short period, saved permanently. Big tech has taken data hording to an extreme and it is stupid expensive in both materials and energy.

wtf I love AI now
