      Man I'm glad I got bored by LW stuff before it broke my brain more than it did. There's so much stuff online written people who just got wrecked by that/EA/other transhumanism adjacent stuff that's too easy to see an alt version of myself in

      1) I've recently caught the bug with LW/rationalist/insight porn literature 2) I've also recently begun to follow a handful of LW skeptics/"post rationalist" accounts on Twitter Besides being kind of a waste of time, what specifically is so dangerous about LW stuff?

      Totally fair question! I should disclaim that I'm also glad I spent time with rationalist/LW-style stuff for awhile; I still believe in EA, and parts of the online rationalist project/sphere/social graph have interesting & valuable things to say. That said-

      For some people it gets mindbreaky, especially people who genuinely believe the singularity is nigh and that a god AI is right around the corner. (See Roko's Basilisk and its attendant fallout - people genuinely unable to function out of anxiety about it)-

      And I know a few people who just got so paralyzed by trying to figure out the least harmful way to live that they were seriously thinking of killing themselves. Trying to Do Good is a noble goal & at same time LW-style approach really ends up messing some people up

      As in all things, mileage varies. I suspect I'm hardwired to be neurotic & feel guilty and that the people who got really fucked up by it are similar

      Gotcha, this makes a lot of sense. I think I've been reading more at an arm's length, and not seriously working to operationalize any EA stuff in my life Obviously it's good to think rigorously about how to Be Good, but also there are diminishing returnspic.twitter.com/RfUk8LxJbs
