Tech CEOs should be asked if they want to be waterboarded. Their options are “Yes” and “Later.”
@maxleibman I'm certain at least a handful of tech CEOs literally volunteered to be waterboarded at the recent AI cult summer camp, as per information compiled by @davidgerard
@maxleibman @davidgerard wow somebody from mastodontech.de was so offended by this post that they reported me.
I have investigated myself and therefore I must conclude I am guilty of referencing the fact that waterboarding was a popular activity at an AI cult summer camp which recently occurred and is documented here by David:

I admit I had merely assumed "at least a handful" of the people receiving this popular treatment called themselves CEOs (a safe assumption).
@markusblogde I'm not mad, I'm just...confused
@xan @markusblogde and guilty, don't forget
@maxleibman Come on, be fair, option two should be "Maybe later"
@hakona @maxleibman The second option postpones it until they are in the middle of something important.
@woozle @hakona @maxleibman That'll be a long wait...
