I wonder how much time he spent on the video relative to the other stuff

A buddy did it with Claude, so zero time.

Oh I even saw your other posts in this thread but didn't recognize the name. So much for my research skills

I mean, at least you didn’t spend the last 20 years hashing 2^51 sentences in your research.

You said it was dead. How could there be any fix?

Right, the article does seem very, uh, doomery. The author has prematurely spelled the end of open source when we've hardly had time to contend with this.

Did you just make that one up? It's pretty good!

I don’t recall seeing it anywhere.

Not simply for failing though. Obviously there were other factors.

That assumes that torture is something that is only done to an object, but it also has effects, probably strong ones, on the torturer. In that sense, torturing a rock, or an AI, could be a real thing.

Actually the prior art is Screaming Lord Sutch of the Monster Raving Looney Party[1] who started in 1963.

As a former Monster Raving Looney I have decided to defect to the Binface Party based on their sensible policies on the hand dryer in the Uxbridge Crown & Treaty pub.

Lord Buckethead is much older than Boaty McBoatface.

Better prior art [1], in an actual election.

Also members of the Original Monster Raving Loony Party, who have achieved multiple seats, including Mayor of Ashburton.

Still no: "Lord Buckethead" first stood in 1987, some 15 years before the "H'Angus the monkey" campaign in 2002.

I thought that's the prior art https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Waldo_Moment

Nope. Several decades later.

The "Boaty McBoatface" campaign was from 2016. "Lord Buckethead" first appeared in 1987, some 30 years earlier.
