Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

The authors said on Twitter that they aren't EA's, but they surveyed people at valley AI companies to write the report, so it's probably quite influenced by EAs.

Not everything is about your toy train world geopolitical supremacy and there are people far too rich and powerful to give a shit about it who benefit from your believing that it is

Believe me, I’m not even American: it’s just you, me, and everyone getting the shaft on all five other continents as well

What does that even mean, does AI have a nationality? And compete on what? Are we going to pit the USA AI against the French AI in a cage match?

When AI is finding zero days and tearing down firewalls, do you want to have a limited number of graphics processors running our defense?

Obviously, it's easier to tear down firewalls with the extra fingers.

That's just common sense.
