@ilex_ulmus Endorse pause for any reason. I'll take any endorsement.

@robertwiblin Glad to see just the tiniest glimmers of common sense on this question.

@RosieCampbell Huh. How did it work?

@GarettJones @Mjreard @dwarkesh_sp I hope it's a good charity! They convinced me but I'm very, very dumb so who knows.

The standards for "justify your donation decisions" have gotten very high!

@arram Could you make an "unweaver" that takes the rope back apart? Put the two together, connect the lines, and have an eternally weaving/unweaving rope? That would be a fun art project!

@Gerashchenko_en How do you keep these from being used to target commercial airplanes autonomously if misused?

@tyler_m_john I think if the potential convert who took $10k to read a religious text agrees they'll only get to keep the $10k if they DON'T convert is going to lead to very very low conversion numbers. Even if the text is phenomenal.

@JillFilipovic I throw a $5000 party every year. It's the highlight of the year. We budget to make it work.

@Mjreard @dwarkesh_sp I give to https://t.co/27DgS1SRm0

Open to people's opinions about it, I'm not a deep activist on this. I set up a recurring monthly to THL and then stop thinking about it.

Our highest and most urgent national priority should be AI safeguards. The risks of AI weapons, pathogens, mass unemployment, surveillance, and even extinction must not continue to be largely ignored.

@AlecStapp @tylercowen Sort of dodges the central question.
"AI can help students cheat."
"Cheat at what? Those are obsolete skills, we probably shouldn't be teaching them."
"Cheat at everything."

@nolacampanella Because it's on Richard St?

@nolacampanella What is this thing? It looks a little like a billboard. Can you identify the large building in the background?

ANTHROPIC: "We believe it would be good for the world to have the option to slow or temporarily pause frontier AI development to enable societal structures and alignment research to keep up with the advance of the technology."

@dylanmatt Ughhhhhhh that prompt was so long and judgemental, no way I'm reading all that let me see if 4.8 can summarize it in the form of the opening 4 bars of a rap battle

@NathanpmYoung @AaronBergman18 Is this just a thing where utilization is ~low and the baseline cost of keeping the lights on and the doors open in SF is ~high?

If 20 people go to the library all day and it costs $1000/day to keep the library open then yes that's $50 per visit but it's not library's fault.

@KatjaGrace Until they ask me about it. After one hour of which they are WELL CALIBRATED.
