Interested in building things/systems that bring people together meaningfully, esp in ways that scale. Glad to connect with others who share the vision

Looking to work with people interested in improving social media and people (non hippy types) interested in forming intentional community(s) around central NJ. Given that I have yet to amass a proper following on Twitter...

My perspective on AI safety has evolved as reality has increasingly diverged from my expectations, formed from reading various AI thought experiments 10-15 years ago. A nice essay by Scott Aaronson which captures the emerging landscape: https://t.co/xS7jLu4EBk

Anyone know of efforts to combine an AI/automated system that can validate gpt3s statements for accuracy

[Timothy Taylor @Timothydidit]

Could gpt 3 be used as a way of leading "pig butchering" scammers astray? Is there a cost effective way or philanthropic effort to fight them?

Listening to @JoshConstine’s interview with Worldcoin’s CEO. Fascinating project. https://t.co/0nG6aBxYDd

Seems like people would have an incentive to get along with their neighbors and a feeling of connection

I've been thinking a lot about more ways to allow modern people to have shared "assets" over things in such a way that bonds them. The classic are shared leases/homes.

One idea that is less commonly seem is if we could mainstream shared ownership of courtyards/front yards.

@realdavidawad @Curiousferret1 @Noahpinion How can we promote the development of church-like communities for atheist and agnostic folk? This is something I have a desire to work on but would need to find the right team to believe that it would be executed well together.

Zippered pockets should be a more common body modification for transhumanists

@sama Made me think of Letter From Utopia by Bostrom https://t.co/hRfNPp0JIm

btw, i think we will have these before this decade is out.

not deployed at scale yet, but it will be clear that both are going to happen.

@FrobtheBuilder @ArthurB @RiversHaveWings @sama I'd love to learn about this and am curious if there are any valid flaws to this position

Hiring a virtual assistant is life-changing.

My VA saves me ~40 hours of time per month.

Here's exactly how we work together in 6 simple steps.

Deepmind has already stated similar sentiments so perhaps I am stating the obvious

[Timothy Taylor @Timothydidit]

Maybe the key to AGI lies within a narrow AI that can do data labeling at scale for all of the internet. There are so many ways that the internet could benefit from better data labeling of its content. Google is not as efficient as it could be

It would be awesome to see more small-scale experiments of government entities in individual states and other governing bodies

[Timothy Taylor @Timothydidit]

Has there been a government system which has tried to cap off salaries and net worth (perhaps tax or automatically donate anything in excess) Something in the US where lawmakers cannot make more than 750k per year in there career or lifetime would be a cool experiment to run.

I'd argue this is a big part of why web3 has had such a big wave of developer talent flooding in

[Timothy Taylor @Timothydidit]

The pandemic gave many white collar workers time off and additional freedom which lead their psychologies to adapt and change. One of the main changes (seen culturally) seems to towards paying more attention to ones own quality of life and building projects they care about
