Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

pivoting my startup from blog posts about how my video game’s AI could break out of the game and into the real world, just like a shitty action movie from 2009, to a medical startup that assumes auto-immune diseases are exactly like politics and we must therefore build nanomachines that debate your cells into perfect health

This is Virtuosity (1995) slander

the rationalists have plagiarized so much from that one episode of Are you Afraid of The Dark? where the computer virus escapes VR into the real world through the serial port in the kid’s hand

e: I got the name of the cheesy 90s horror series confused for the name of a cheesy 90s survival horror game!

Oh, you're not satirizing, that's nearly a literal quote. They actually think debatebro conflict resolution solutions will be applicable to autoimmune disorders.
