idk from what i gather it's basically the ai from "i have no mouth and i must scream" except he's punishing (simulations of) people worried about existential risks for not giving it their all before the technological singularity, which i think is slightly less cool than a computer deity reaching back through time to gently caress up anyone who messes with causality

that said the fact that some people apparently get really worried about this little thought experiment being concocted and themselves being exposed to it is v. entertaining

quote:

(For those who have no idea why I'm using capital letters for something that just sounds like a random crazy idea, and worry that it means I'm as crazy as Roko, the gist of it was that he just did something that potentially gives superintelligences an increased motive to do extremely evil things in an attempt to blackmail us. It is the sort of thing you want to be EXTREMELY CONSERVATIVE about NOT DOING.)

quote:

As a teenager I suffered from severe depression and formed a strong bond with the character Garfield and his outlook. Its sad but reading garfield anthologies obsessively was the only thing that made me feel normal and it eventually took on something of an erotic fixation.

To avoid feeling like a sicko I drew pictures of garfield with a womans(Think Pamela anderson circa 1991) body and garfields head, so that I was assured that my fixation wasn't with animals or repressed homosexuality. This garfield/pam hybrid still had the same biting wit and acerbic outlook and tended to cut herself in self loathing while wolfing down a lasagna to fill the void after sleeping with drawings of a much more handsome and muscular version of myself. These drawings eventually evolved into erotic fanfiction starring garfield and myself (In my head Garfield still has a womans body but someone reading the stories would think Im having sex with regular Garfield.) I killed off Jon in a jealous rage, I didn't touch Odie, I enjoy his companionship and don't mind if he watches.

buncha loving babies. if the AI isn't currently torturing you from the future, then it means that we can't be living the "AI reaches back through time to punish people who didn't help in its creation" version, and the "AI will punish a perfect computer simulation of you for eternity" version is about as big a deal as someone threatening to tear up your picture.
