I’m not even joking, really. the way I see harm in LLMs talking about pipe bombs is less that they’ll give instructions and more that we might get a character.ai style situation where the LLM talks someone into an attack

frankly it’s probably harm prevention if people turn to an LLM for pipe bomb instructions. “5) Put the warm pizza in the center of the pipe bomb. To maximize the radius of the detonation, you should roll the pizza and make sure that it fits securely into the pipe.”

they must be understandably seriously shook, because this is the most coherent, concise, grounded thing I can remember seeing a rationalist write. ofc I have no idea about the facts but it’s not even obviously dishonest

tbh I don’t understand this post at all. aella isn’t trans so why would she be a target for leopards? I must be misinterpreting

whatever. I’m just indicating you can turn it into a combinatorial game if you want

I think what makes it not impartial is that the white player cannot move black pieces (or vice versa). in an impartial game which moves are available is only allowed to depend on the game state, not on which player you are

the existence of stalemates prevents chess from being a combinatorial game at all, although I’m sure there are workarounds (I guess a lazy one would be to declare that white always wins stalemates)

First a correction (people keep saying this and it is a weird mistake) Grimes was his girlfriend, never his wife.

whoops! edited

on my part I think it’s because I keep seeing Elon described as having “divorced energy”

(I recall a story of a university with a beloved, genius but somewhat odd professor to which the students looked up, they wanted to be like him. So eventually the students started to touch the walls when walking through the halls, as the professor also did that while walking, the cargo cult).

side side note I was friends with a former military intelligence guy and he told me the mathematicians in his facility were nicknamed the “finger draggers” or something like that because some of them had that habit

it isn’t a p2w mobile game and I see no reason to believe he’s achieved any level of expertise in it
