Trump iss making his announcement a 9PM EST. I expect Twitter to meltdown at 9:43 (I tacked on an extra 20 minutes for Trump to actually appear, and another 20 to get to the loving point)

It's dumber that: Nice-AI and Satan-AI are the same loving AI!

1) Because AI will follow EA principles, inflicting suffering in the present is acceptable if it produces greater good in the future. Or even inflicting suffering in the past! How does a future AI impact the past? Well...

2) Post-Singualrity AIs will be able to create perfect simulations of the universe, with individual personalities for everyone. In fact, LessWrong contends that it'll be so perfect that you can't say with certainty that you aren't in a simulation now! Therefore, because we can logically inferring what the Future AI desires to achieve the singularity sooner, we flip causality. Bing, bong, so simple!

idgi why would an AI give a poo poo about punishing anyone and if it really was that misanthropic then why would it give a pass to some Silicon Valley dipshit just because they donated to the right project instead of targeting them on purpose

the ai won't punish you it will punish a simulation of you
this is scary because uhhh what if you were the simulation all along?! the real you already made the decision in the past and you're just a reflection trapped in a computer? the ai might make a million simulations all at once that means there is only a 1 in a million chance that you're the real you and not a simulation

also it will only punish the simulation if you are a dork who reads eliezer yudkowsky's blog and actually believes enough of the dumb crap he writes to be afraid of the dumb simulated-punishment scenario, since otherwise it's a waste of time

He's too much of a piss bitch to take one of his rockets on a suborbital hop, there's no way that shithead is going to Mars

That's why I'm saying the world needs to mock him into it. Get lots of prominent Black celebrities in on it calling him a pissbitch coward who can't afford it to really set off his triggers. We all win either way.

But manual poo poo for cars, hell yes. Besides the standard engine computer (that cannot update itself, and whose status outputs I can read with a plug in jigger to know what's wrong instead of "TAKE ME TO THE TESLA SHOP" on a screen) My truck is basically manual everything from transmission to window rollers. And I can fill it with a bunch of poo poo, even live in it, and strap poo poo all over the outside.

And when poo poo gets hosed, everything beyond more serious engine poo poo outside my scope, I can disassemble, and repair/replace.

Granted with the Teslas it looks like you can disassemble a lot with your hands like lego, not using any tools, so point to them there.

Gaiaonline is also selling blue check and double blue checks now as a flair to put next to your username. They've had name flair for several years now so this isn't a super new feature they added, just part of something they already had, which I think makes this funnier.

I've got a bunch of Z-wave/Zigbee light switches, door locks, contact sensors and blinds that make the house feel pretty futuristic and are not on the internet, so yeah, I'm fine with it. It is kind of hard to find a stupid "smart things hub" that isn't cloud-only, though there is open source and some commercial options.

One set of (mains powered) blinds I bought were using this platform from this incredibly untrustworthy, giant Chinese company whose entire thing seems to be "turnkey firmwares for home automation" so some company wants to make blinds, goes to this company and for a cut in the profits, just gets a pre-baked firmware. Thankfully, internally it was just an ESP8266 so I was able to open the motor and just flash it with a third party firmware that just made it MQTT (they'd tried to lock out OTA flashing due to people wanting to get out of their ecosystem).

The stuff with Grimes - I've found Musk's general "personal relationships" pretty confusing. For a while he *did* seem to be doing the model-dating thing, I remember he was meant to be going out with British B-lister Talulah Riley. But then he just kind of ended up with Grimes and started having poorly named babies?

Usually common law you have to declare it anyway. If just living together for an extended period of time made you married then a whole lot of people would be accidentally married to their roommates.

Most states don't actually officially recognize common law marriage as a thing (apparently only 15 do and 5 of those only if the marriage was registered before some time before the 90s), including California IIRC where they lived.
