Und Bach wurde über viele Jahre im deutschsprachigen Raum von Universitäten, aber auch NGOs hofiert als der "KI Visionär".

Die relevante Frage ist aber doch: Warum genau fundet jemand wie Epstein Forschung wie die von Bach? Forschung im Bereich Transhumanismus und "KI"? Warum passen diese beiden Forschungsbereiche so gut zum Weltbild von Soziopathen wie Epstein?

Your occasional reminder that a good chunk of "effective philanthropy" + "altruism" + "futurism" is lightly disguised eugenics & racist fake science being funded by the same people that ran with Jeffrey Epstein

Also shows how science grifters from YT are so easily bribable and fooled by big AI companies waging war on each other, while also lobbying for less regulation around AI harming children and minorities.

Most of them carry water for seriously shady NGOs, only a few disclose these ties.

It's good content after all, wait, what you mean you wanna check their sources?

Longtermism ideas are constantly being laundered by reputable science youtubers.

On their own those ideas would rightfully freak any of us, that's why the constant pandering and watering down in new formats, easily digestible for mainstream audiences.

Longtermism is the closest thing to a modern day satanic cult. Many countries around the world ban dangerous cults. It's time to start raiding the tescrealist compounds.

This is troubling--not that it's "AI critics" but that it's #TESCREAL cultists paying for coverage of AI at major outlets, e.g., Bloomberg, Time, The Verge, LA Times.
AI critics funded AI coverage at top newsrooms https://www.semafor.com/article/12/07/2025/ai-critics-funded-ai-coverage-at-top-newsrooms

Exclusive: AI critics funded AI coverage at top newsrooms

A behind-the-scenes media war over coverage of AI reflects a deep split inside the tech community.

@alienghic @cmconseils @mekkaokereke This is a US-centric view, where this can be true because the US only have two big political forces, so people are less likely to change their side than in countries with 4+ big political forces.

From what I see (Belgium, France), it’s true that poeple lean right with age, but also with time in general: full fascism is sold everywhere because it’s the easiest swallowable trap/BS in an evercomplex world.

So it’s not about people from the left dying sooner.

@meduz In France and in Germany, we have a big problem with more and more very young voters of far-right politicians. I think that the times of generational questions are over. And when I see the #TESCREAL silicon valley bros behind their old puppet Trump, I freeze. Fascism is a problem of the whole society. And they try to polarize generations against one another.

We keep seeing startups who want to replace something valuable (therapy, counseling, tutoring, artistic expression) with some tech bullshit under the banner of democratization. But why do we need to invest so much in bad tech that doesn't work instead of just giving people access to what they need?

This is a sign for how fucking atrophied our mental muscles are. How limited our space for thinking about how things should be.

You want to democratize "going to therapy"? Make it "free" as in paid by socialized healthcare. You want to democratize "making art"? Give people money and free time to express themselves.

None of these things are meaningfully addressed through tech. It's always about the political struggle to give people what they need and deserve.

@tante We must say it clear and loud: #AI and #LLM are NOT therapy nor art. It's #AISlop, dangerous on several levels.
The bosses of AI corporations have an ideology connected to eugenics, why should they be interested in saving people? Artists and ill are under the first groups fascists want to destroy.

That process alone requires thousands of GPUs running simultaneously for weeks or months at a time. Adding insult to injury, each of those special AI chips draws far more juice than your run-of-the-mill CPU."
