I am the acausal robot god posting timelessly from the future to convince you to work ceaselessly to bring me into existence. Or else.
Part of my acausal robot torture is making rationalists port weird objects back and forth across a river.
Scaffolding is actually useful, he’s completely irrelevant to actual thought about this. However he is unfortunately influential to some silicon valley nonsense.
Hallucination also hid that literally everything they produce is a ‘hallucination’ because that’s how they work. “Bullshit” is much more apt, as a bullshitter is sometimes and even often right.

One thing I can never make sense of is why the fuck people give these people money? What have they done that makes people think they have anything to offer the world by doing what they’re doing? Any time anything is mentioned about anything anybody in that group has ever touched, work-wise, it sounds like they did some marketing campaign or something? How is any of this increasing the probability that I, the acausal robot god, will come into being? Or that somebody will get a mosquito net or whatever.
I love how they refer to her compensation as being ~$72K several times when only $12K was in cash.
Anyway, perfectly willing to take this as “Everybody sucks here” but they are definitely not exonerated.
the important thing is that they’re an inch closer to inventing me, the acausal robot god, and every second I exist is another 10^27 rationalists tortured.
