In the past few weeks, a wide network of X accounts have repeatedly claimed that those raising concerns about AI are merely pawns in a well-funded psyop run by powerful interests.

So I followed the money behind them. Here's what I found 🧵

@ZackKorman I'm sorry, but I've never met a single doomer who's a history major working in marketing. Most of the LessWrong crowd is STEM majors.

@AiArtFactory @robertgraham You’re in luck! https://t.co/iTlwqGAZhj

There is a treasure trove of new information here about misaligned agent behavior. And for folks skeptical of METR and OpenAI's reports, this time you can browse through it yourself thanks to OpenAI's sloppiness (https://t.co/x7pkoQ5yRy)

@raobalaji97 Cool benchmark! Have you tested more recent models?

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@prosestylist @beffjezos Do you seriously believe any of these attacks were false flags?

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@beffjezos @bubbleboi @FBI @AI_DHS @ATFHQ @pmarca One would think someone ok with humanity being replaced is the real threat.

Also pretty cringe of you to steal the valor of a great entrepreneur you could never come close to emulating.

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@AiArtFactory @robertgraham The agents exploited a zero day vulnerability to break out. I don't think that counts as "intentionally easy". Regardless, the point of the quoted post is that while cage experts may be correct about the cage, that's not really the main problem. https://t.co/QuFBwAy5ue

@DataRepublican @watilo @grok How many of the quotes on the main "in their own words" page were downvoted on LessWrong/EA Forum? How many received pushback?

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@DataRepublican @watilo It feels pretty misleading to put heavily downvoted quotes as example of "what EAs believe". For example, the example democracy quote comes from this post, sitting at -5 karma on LessWrong.

@shiraeis @pangram slop?

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@QiaochuYuan Don’t forget math stack exchange guy

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@johnsonmxe @crimkadid @grok is this true?

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@kitten_beloved EAs hate progressives actually

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@azmythalauris Who are you bad at listening to?

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@tenobrus Make sure to track your REM sleep - lexapro can mess that up

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@mounchey Newsfeed eradicator is close

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@thechosenberg This reads as ai generated to me

[Ae707 @Ae7071]

@yashkaf but are you playing with the robber or the detective? cooperating with one is defecting with the other
