@cormachayden_ quick comms tip: this isn't about you, no one cares in crisis how you feel, let alone about your internal drama

the video you should release is: "dear customers, we failed you. we are in a tough spot but are working 24/7 to re-earn your trust. i've sold the rari"

it’s easy but ahistorical to believe that if you find a theory that’s big, true, and totalizing that showing it in full day light will lead to the world to adopt it. One only needs to look at first century Christianity to find out that even Absolute Truth doesn’t work this way

[Will Manidis @WillManidis]

underrated to the degree to which every company that is great at fundraising in the last 20 years adopted explicitly millenarian frames:

ant/openai: death by unaligned ai
palantir: death by terror
anduril: china/taiwan
spacex: death by climate -> death by woke

the frontier labs don’t have “comms problems”. reality right now has a comms problem. what is happening is a little scary and there’s no nice words anyone could say, especially not those profiting from it, that’ll make it feel that much better

the scaling maximalism that exists inside of these firms is a much bigger theory of both history and of our lives than has been successfully payloaded into public consciousness before- and is liable to simply yield to dumber versions of the same theory- water libel, Sam evil, etc

[Will Manidis @WillManidis]

talk page discourse on this one has some real gems too.

incredible they've written a wikipedia page for the greatest technology megacycle of our lives.

I'm not asking you to cower.

I'm asking you to realize that it is structurally a losing position to argue that a delaware c3 is somehow "publicly accountable"-- let alone one filing a form 990 rather than a form 990-PF to sidestep any disbursement requirement -- in the face of rising bipartisan calls to nationalize/tax-to-death/or otherwise mess with your progress.

I broadly believe the technology you are building is going to be good for the world. I also believe that the factor input to scaling laws that is most sparse right now is public and political good will.

and each week the labs fail to recognize this fact and claim any degree of "public accountability" in this current structure is a week where the window for the prosperous agi future we both want is closing

@jachiam0 i will fix your comms posture so this ipo doesn't end in your ending up in section four of situational awareness. if you want to get out alive you know how to get to me

[Will Manidis @WillManidis]

@jachiam0 this is a horrible comms posture please dont do this

[Will Manidis @WillManidis]

I don’t think any of you understand what is about to happen in the market. We are about to live through the craziest five year run in technocapital history. God help us all. I pray that when Judgement comes He can see all that we did to ensure efficient price discovery.
