Doh! Should have read the full Wikipedia article.
Pfft. Real hoopy froods play Heroclix.
I do not play Heroclix but I bought some about 20 years ago.
Jesus christ 20 years? Huh. Also I didn't notice but it was discontinued in 2008.
Yeah that was my read of the game from my first exposure to it. "You have to buy cards sight-unseen hoping to get good ones? That's a scam."
It's like they looked at Dungeons and Dragons product churn and thought "No, that's not shitty enough"
The Auryn project has a sub-project called North Star, founded by a VC partner, and a Bain Capital veteran, among others.
The whole thing gives me the ick.
Books would be really boring if the protagonists were all just the author speaking as themself but using various funny voices.
Shovels that are less and less competitive over time.
Perhaps that's part of why so many SV types are backing Trump. Grifting off Trump may be their fallback after the AI bubble collapses.
Someone send Roko a copy of James K. Morrow's novel "Towing Jehovah" which involves the enormous corpse of God being towed, by a (much smaller) oil tanker, from near the Equator north to a fijord for burial in a cave. (I lost interest toward the end).

I suspect quite a few of them are going to be unalived in the next 30 years, given the way things are going politically in various countries.
Could be many millions, especially if Modi's India gets really bad and it overflows into Pakistan.
Still not enough to make much of a dent in the total world population though.
The middle picture looks very much like a young lesbian couple.
Not that there's anything wrong with lesbian couples of any age. It's just with this pair it's... odd.
I can't help it. I see a picture of them and it's like a puzzle I need to solve.
Yeah, I'm not going to believe anything out of OpenAI that isn't produced as part of discovery.
So who is going to be first to set up a grifty EA think tank where the thinking is admittedly all done by LLMs, and why shouldn't it be us.
The U.S. government must move “decisively” to avert an “extinction-level threat" to humanity from AI, says a government-commissioned report
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.
