      I think both make excellent points and that it's unfortunate that EAs lost what sense they had when they decided to join with the x-risk crowd. (Whatever you think about their philosophy more broadly, at the very least every EA I've met has put their money where their mouth is)

      There's even a specific term they made up for what the whole x-risk crowd does (Pascal's Mugging) but their addiction to feeling special and beating the normies as always swamps everything else

      The weird thing is that it was Yudkowsky himself who made that up. Like, he knows that the precise thing he's doing is bad and did a huge blog post on "Why doing the precise thing I'm doing is bad"

      I feel like there's a facet of all this that often goes unremarked, which is the incredible quantities of speed these guys are doing. 1/

      I mean, I write pretty fast, and I can even copy-edit myself pretty well. I've written, I dunno, something in the area of a million words or something. A couple of short books, a lot of blog posts, a bunch of documentation and whatnot. 2/

      I know I do this faster and better than average because I was in industry for 25 years and worked with, like, humans doing shit. So. 3/

      This kind of logorrhea is extremely abnormal. Sure it's not very coherent, structurally, but it IS endless reams of more or less correctly formed sentence, with complicated words all over the place used more or less correctly. 4/

      It's speed, kids. It's speed. Or some sort of "cognitive enhancement cocktail" which is, basically, some kind of speed. See also Ayn Rand, Whacked Out On Speed. fin/

      Replying to @amolitor99 @arthur_affect and

      Absolutely. I'm a full-time writer, and my friends joke about my productivity, saying things like "I just popped to the toilet, did Andrew write another book while I was gone?" I average a little over 1300 words a day.

      Scott Alexander writes several times that, while also holding down a full-time intensive job. That doesn't seem to me like a level of productivity that can be sustained without chemical enhancements.

          Not sure about that. I'm autistic and dyspraxic and almost certainly ADHD, and pretty much all my social circle are some form of neurodivergent, and I don't know of anyone who can produce like that except in brief manic phases.

          Well I think the fact that he’s one of the most prolific in a fairly large community introduces some obvious selection bias. Let’s try and not speculate too much on things we have little if no evidence for and is stigmatized more than it should be :)
