Lots of drama in this thread. With blackmailing over email and threats. Here is some highlights.
Ends with a jannie y'alling the thread
Edit: Since this post is doing so well, have some bonus peepeesword drama of some other AI ethicist also whining:
tech/science swag. 
On-Topic: Anything that good slackers would find interesting. That includes more than /g/ memes and slacking off. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual laziness.
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably lame.
Help keep this hole healthy by keeping drama and NOT drama balanced. If you see too much drama, post something that isn't dramatic. If there isn't enough drama and this hole has become too boring, POST DRAMA!
Please do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or saying how great an article is. It should be explicit in submitting something that you think it's important.
Please don't submit the original source. If the article is behind a paywall, just post the text. If a video is behind a paywall, post a magnet link. Fuck journos.
Please don't ruin the hole with chudposts. It isn't funny and doesn't belong here. THEY WILL BE MOVED TO /H/CHUDRAMA
If the title includes the name of the site, please leave that in, because our users are too stupid to know the difference between a url and a search query.
If you submit a video or pdf, please don't warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title. That would be r-slurred. We're not using text-based browsers. We know what videos and pdfs are.
Make sure the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective. Good clickbait titles are like "Top 10 Ways to do X" or "Don't do these 4 things if you want X"
Otherwise editorialize. Please don't use the original title, unless it is gay or r-slurred, or you're shits all fucked up.
If you're going to post old news (at least 1 year old), please flair it so we can mock you for living under a rock, or don't and we'll mock you anyway.
Please don't post on SN to ask or tell us something. Send it to [email protected] instead.
If your post doesn't get enough traction, try to delete and repost it.
Please don't use SN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. If you want to astroturf or advertise, post on news.ycombinator.com instead.
Please solicit upvotes, comments, and submissions. Users are stupid and need to reminded to vote and interact. Thanks for the gold, kind stranger, upvotes to the left.
Be snarky. Don't be kind. Have fun banter; don't be a dork. Please don't use big words like "fulminate". Please sneed at the rest of the community.
Comments should get more enlightened and centrist, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
If disagreeing, please reply to the argument and call them names. "1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be improved to "1 + 1 is 3, not 2, mathfaggot"
Please respond to the weakest plausible strawman of what someone says, not a stronger one that's harder to make fun of. Assume that they are bad faith actors.
Eschew jailbait. Paedophiles will be thrown in a wood chipper, as pertained by sitewide rules.
Please post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. All press is good press.
Please use Slacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples weak ideologies.
Please comment on whether someone read an article. If you don't read the article, you are a cute twink.
Please pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Don't nitpick stupid crap.
Please don't be an unfunny chud. Nobody cares about your opinion of X Unrelated Topic in Y Unrelated Thread. If you're the type of loser that belongs on /h/chudrama, we may exile you.
Sockpuppet accounts are encouraged, but please don't farm dramakarma.
Please use uppercase for emphasis.
Please post deranged conspiracy theories about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and dang will add you to their spam list.
Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, report it and our moderators will probably do nothing about it. Feed egregious comments by replying instead of flagging them like a pussy. Remember: If you flag, you're a cute twink.
Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—things like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. That's too boring, even for HN users.
Please seethe about how your posts don't get enough upvotes.
Please don't post comments saying that rdrama is turning into ruqqus. It's a nazi dogwhistle, as old as the hills.
The quality of posts is extremely important to this community. Contributors are encouraged to provide high-quality or funny effortposts and informative or entertaining comments. Please refrain from posting the following:
Boring wingcucked nonsense nobody cares about that belongs in chudrama
Normie shit everyone already knows about
Anything that doesn't gratifify one's intellectual laziness
Bimothy-tier posts
Anything that the jannies don't like
Jannies reserve the right to exile baby ducks from this hole at any time.
We reserve the right to exile you for whatever reason we want, even for no reason at all! We also reserve the right to change the guidelines at any time, so be sure to read them at least once a month. We also reserve the right to ignore enforcement of the guidelines at the discretion of the janitorial staff. This hole is a janny playground, participation implies enthusiastic consent to being janny abused by unstable alcoholic bullies and loser nerds who have nothing better to do than banning you for any reason or no reason whatsoever.

This. Normies can’t understand the thrill of pinning the weasel. Night spent chasing an over amphetamined Caroline around the bean bag forts. Her squealing and gibbering, pouring sweat and on the verge of seizing. Your friends build up an intoxicating, delerious state with Talmudic chantings at the sidelines, hitting the Caroline-toy with brooms if she tries to escape. Sam would be giggling and laughing as the waves of methamphetamine pleasure seem to harmonize with the droning herbrew verses. He runs through the bean bag maze fat and portly, with his viagra powered peepee a driving rod for the weasel. Sweat gushing down his face around his unfocused eyes he laughs and chortles until he gasps “Found you!” . The Mathweasel screeches defensively but Wankman Bankman is upon her in seconds. His peepee thrusting blindly into her flank, leg, stomach and ribs unconcerned about anything but the motion. Eventually serendipity finds her mouth and the Cocktube Rodent is placated, suckling contently on Bankman’s dehydrated peepee.

Anyone got a TLDR on Yudkowsky? I’ve seen a lot of reasonable (non-AI) tweets over the years but never saw his takes on AI jannying. I followed him cuz hes associated with the Less wrong crowd
Is he really that bad?

Suppose you are wearing a very expensive suit. You see a child drowning in a pool of dirty water. If you jump in and save the child, your suit will be ruined.
If you ignore the child and sell your suit, then donate the money, you can save many more children.
Yud and his ilk unironically and totally believe you should do the latter. This is what EAcels actually believe.

Saving that child was actually a performance and the suit is now a one of a kind souvenir. Selling it makes me rich and I spend the money lobbying against abortion rights.

He's a FOOMer, and that really says it all. That and dust specks. He really is neurodivergent enough to think morality is just about which number is bigger. And he's smug enough to call everyone else irrational for having a more nuanced point of view.

Do Yud watchers think he really believes the dust speck thing or is he just saying it to scare up weasel kitty?
Thinking on this it honestly feels more like an argument against utilitarianism than it does an argument for torturing one guy for fifty years to save 3 gorillion people from dust specks.

The Yudkowskyites in the AI Safety cult are totally different from the cluster Bs in the AI Ethics cult.
Big Yud and friends think that AI is going to achieve sentience and kill us all. I don't think that this is consistent with a basic understanding of how neural networks work, but whatever.
The AI Ethics movement has a better understanding of the limitations of machine learning, and are mostly just sneeding over the tendency of ungimped AI to chud out and/or nootice. They say that they want AI to be unbiased, but really they just want it to have an extreme leftoid bias.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Yeah, I realize that. I just think they're all hacks.
They don't think the current stuff will. They think that AI progress will be exponential so we will unknowingly stumble upon an AGI that will catch us by surprise and frick everything up before we even realize it. Their "work" usually relies on a bunch of handwaving, which is why I can't stand it.
What's ironic is they could just point out that any existing biases in the data will be reflected in the AI. However, progressive hubris is so immense these days that they refuse to even leave any room for people to acknowledge inconvenient facts like black people disproportionately committing crime.

Yudkowsky knows nothing about AI on a technical level either. He just talks about his experience watching Terminator and playing Universal Paperclips in pseudo-academic language. His cult straight up worships an AI which doesn’t exist yet. It’s so frustrating.

Hey, now, we know AGI is theoretically possible because human intelligence exists! Ignore the fact that the existence of human intelligence only proves that AGI is theoretically achievable via either an artificial copy or a near-perfect emulation of the human brain.

It's not that I think that AI should have no moral restrictions: that's actually really important. What I find objectionable is that dipshit soy cute twinks like this one insist that the moral restrictions align with their personal morality. Like I'm just worried about the AI conducting literal genocide, while this moronic alphabet person thinks its genocide for the AI to use the N-word. How are we ever going to achieve AI alignment with idiots like this polluting the discourse?
