@hope_in_light you can say what you like
but I have yet to find an argument that persuades me that the meat matters one bit as compared to the data
I'm sympathetic to the idea that copies are so morally dangerous as to be deontologically evil, but that's a non-issue with destructive scanning?

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

never felt more rationalist than watching people debate something a niche subcommunity already ~settled over a decade ago
go read "friendship is optimal: caelum est conterrens"

YOU CANNOT UPLOAD CONSCIOUSNESS BUT ONLY A REPLICA. YOU CANNOT UPLOAD YOUR MIND. IF YOUR MIND IS UPLOADED AND BOOTED UP WHILE YOURE ALIVE IT IS NOT YOU.

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

@EigenGender yeah
it's tough

this thought brought to you by: dokibird going to polymarket to check the likelihood of canada beating morocco in the world cup

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

thinking about all the people clowning on rationalists a decade ago for seeming like an out of touch cult

we sure are spending a lot of time thinking about AI and prediction markets today

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

@pathogeniic I would really like to 😭
you're kinda off the beaten path tho, last I checked 😔

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

@pathogeniic spicy 🤤

@goblinodds History for Granite has some in-depth videos on pyramid archeology that I've found very interesting and insightful

More people should follow Kelsey Piper https://t.co/AruQubhbwy . Not a small account by any means, and not even because of her excellent AI journalism. But there are v few people for whom thoughtful goodness radiates so clearly from her every intervention. I basically think the world would maybe be better if every human on here followed her. Get a little more moral compass into your life.

@_Botend holy moly 😳

@Mankosmash @Romy_Holland if you think including babies makes blue the obvious choice, then congratulations, fellow blue pusher!

this was how the question was meant to be interpreted, from the person who (re)posted the question.

@ben_j_todd they've got the spirit

@_phoenix_btc @htelnmsk @redrummarts there's fates worse than death, and by my own values that would be one of them

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

@liminal_warmth that's what I'm thinking too lol

@RosieCampbell @Aella_Girl hot take: it should have been 100% of users, because I want the reds to have to see what it's like to exist in an all-red society if they win

[Tenobrus @tenobrus]

nah. the logic actually goes the other way. anyone can go "oh there's a game theoretic equilibrium at 100% red, there's no reason for me or anyone else to ever risk their life" in a thought experiment.

in real life, you are forced to face the fact that your mom is pressing blue

@ShadowP46070650 @myhandle remarkable

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

@anotheranarch no no, we should be charitable, some sociopaths can't read either

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

@YarosShelter you know, yeah, you right
I'm happy for you learning something

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

@YarosShelter @mnmcsofgp @Aella_Girl something something timeless decision theory

[Nexidava @nexidava_]

@YarosShelter @mnmcsofgp @Aella_Girl this is not new info
this is explicitly the reason to pick blue in the original experiment, and if you don't realize anyone in your life would pick blue, it's a failure in your theory of mind
