I think that’s a really good idea and we should encourage them. I recommend Kent cigarettes with the Micronite filter for a smooth aroma.
LMAO… no they’re not.
Honestly, they should just do fentanyl instead and put their full faith in AI happening faster and more meaningfully than it really is.
One of the strongest predictors of the cohesion of a religious movement is costly signaling by which people give things up in a highly visible, credible way for the cause, or in a way that only makes sense if they believe in the cause. Deconversion is highly correlated with not witnessing these credible displays.
segyges already trying to launder the unhinged out of the our chatbot will be curing cancer any minute now new round of claims by framing widespread resentment against AI as “curing cancer is less important than my job satisfaction”.
So use it to cure cancer. Don’t put a button in the email client that makes shit up for people.
Just one more round of improving the models and I’m sure they’ll start being useful for science. Just one more round…

Shhhh… Let them…
Sankar did not name any researchers or provide evidence for the claim.
I wonder why…
okay but there’s no way lung cancer catches up to them before incoming ai winter will
i also like how they’re not even considering that “there is no meaningful improvement” might be an option
but if there is no meaningful improvement then their lifes purpose is null so they couldnt possibly even consider that as an option. Thems going to get on early on the NEXT BIG THING and make MONEY!! And they have also committed so much is nothing left for them if they back out so might as well live in psychosisland completely.
skinny nerd enters a bar, lights up and is thrown out
blog post appears: “yet another blatant attempt to deny white men sex”
big if true.
Real talk, I would love to smoke without worrying about cancer.
If we find a way to smoke without damaging the lungs I’m taking it up again.
I don’t miss being out of breath all the time and generally antsy when shut inside but fuck me but nothing compares the sublime joy of stepping out of some bullshit to drag on a durry.
If cancer was the only one drawback it wouldn’t even be that bad. In addition to cancer, it makes you smell like an ashtray, gives you really bad skin, and its even a cause for erectile dysfunction. There are better drugs to get addicted to.
@e8d79 A major cause of mortality from cigarette smoking is COPD/cardiovascular disease—strokes and heart attacks skyrocket over time, and you’ll end up shuffling around wheezing into an oxygen mask if you keep it up. Not to mention the leg ulcers and pressure sores. It’s like an all-in-one package of “this will fuck you up”!
i might be mistaken, but i have a vague memory that combining smoking and drinking does a real number on severity of one’s atherosclerosis
With the power of denial you can!
at least smoking is social
*Cancers. We would have to cure many cancers. Smoking increases your risk of cancer beyond just throat and lunch cancers.
*lunch cancers
So they’re going after Arby’s and Subway as well?
Real EA thinking there. Using spurious logic to provide a rational-sounding explanation for doing something bad you wanted to do anyway.
There’s a reason he can’t name any. Someone probably joked about it, and he thought it would be a good story to increase his shares in tobacco companies and AI
