less addled, huh?
well, somewhat. about as readable.
oh i meant more in the sense of “what am i letting myself in for when i look up that name”?
it’s the guy who built gas town, he wrote decent blog posts once but got completely got by ai bullshit some time ago
i dunno what that is, i can barely programme html lol, i just hated yudkowsky ten years ago and now here i am
i don’t especially follow particular developments in ai beyond getting a sufficient sense of the overall trajectory of the scam
if Gwern is not a pasty white dude with a degree from a top-level US university I will eat my hat

why do people feel the need to address gwern as somebody smart?
i have never seen him say anything smart
he mostly seems angry about very autistic and occasionally racist stuff
