Human imagination is wonderful - I always find the idea that we need to wait for 'value alignment' hilarious. Many humans running the show currently aren't aligned with human values. Just listen to Trump on any given day and currently dehumanising an entire country, as a prelude for nuclear mass murder. God help the universe if this is whats coming for it. I am also wondering if TESCREAL can be found in Chinese and other places following similar paths?

So, fear of death, basically.

I think we're going to need the input of a psychoanalyst/therapist to really get to the root of why these daft beliefs occur. Perhaps that Astral-Projecting Coding guy could assist, I hear he's good at mindwork

TESCREAL is the only term that fits them all, but it is fun to make up new insulting terms for them. I've just thought up Nugenicists, Nihilotopians and Race Cadets, and I'm not apologising for any of them.

Please strongly consider using less bold in your articles. You are really overdoing it here. When it’s used too much then it loses its effect.

Thank you for this deep dive on the ideology (or closely related network of ideologies as it were) currently driving the ASI race. Its role in the politics of the moment cannot be overstated. As such, understanding these forces provides necessary context.

I found it quite illuminating, at least.
