Lesswrong is a Denial of Service attack on a very particular kind of guy

I’m going to put a token down and make a prediction: when the bubble pops, the prompt fondlers will go all in on a “stabbed in the back” myth and will repeatedly try to re-inflate the bubble, because we were that close to building robot god and they can’t fathom a world where they were wrong.

these idiots made me feel sympathy for a landlord. I might never recover.

As an aside, it’s fun to imagine the similar sort of brain damage a chatbot would cause Fox Mulder.

The bullshit engine has convinced my dirtbag sib-in-law that they can claim squatter’s rights on (and take ownership of) the house that they aren’t paying rent to live in.

They’ve been there a year.

They’re gonna be homeless before this is over and I can’t get them to see reason. I feel totally helpless, real big Cassandra vibes. LLMs are sooooo unhealthy for assholes.
