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 person behind it appears to be a "Jeffrey D Hillman", and this appears to be the first round: https://grantome.com/grant/NIH/R01-DE004529-10
probably worth someone digging into that to see what else may surround the person
from the "Safety Review and FAQ" document:
"sure let's just casually become a walking science experiment and then thinking to first ask whether the other person is taking oral antibiotics. oh and children, because mouth-kissing children is perfectly normal to me, the author of this document"
this was from just like 2min of glancing at this mess so far and fucking what
also why is aella alone there the one with screenname? is her identity not actually public?
In before NY times article prints her real name complete with hissie fit followed by transition to Substack and total abandonment of mask of deniability.
Its to do with her dad I figure.
do tell? I'm not aware of this. I've mostly managed to avoid having detailed contact with these weirdos, and only in the last few years happened to encounter ... their profiles and such. to my knowledge i've not yet managed to meet any of the mainliners of this shit in ZA
Her dad is a big dude in hardcore calvinist apologetics. I can’t remember the org name but like - hard hardcore fundies.
there's a poetic irony in target fixating so hard on avoiding one set of weird nutbaggery to then end up as one of the central figures in another bit of nutbaggery...
A lot of these people come from the ex-fundie world. This has been noted with other cults too.
Iirc she comes from a weird religious background, so her not wanting to be connected back to that isn't not that sneerworthy.
a hit on Aaron Silverbook, and the details are enough to make me guess this is them: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/17629744.Aaron_Silverbook
