"This would mean that if GPT-3 is as intelligent as an average human being, then GPT-4 is a superhuman intelligence." https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/HguqQSY8mR7NxGopc/2022-was-the-year-agi-arrived-just-don-t-call-it-that great illustration of how iteratively disconnected from reality these people have become, how distorted their notions of "intelligence" are, and how psychologically and culturally invested in those notions they are.
https://archive.is/HAIuz relatedly, just a reminder that everyone who identifies with "the grey tribe" has basically galaxy-brained themselves into sharing intellectual company with neoreactionary ghouls. if someone you care about is getting into this shit, sit down with them and talk it out.
@jplebreton I started going down that road the last time I was isolating from my covid infected partner. I was already freaking out about Ukraine being potentially the flashpoint of WWIII, and a google search led me to LessWrong, and I was off to the races. Fortunately, well argued retorts and risible stuff like this helped me walk back from the brink of literal insanity.
