Cafe Meetup 10/25: Spooky Rationality

[Austin Less Wrong]

Cafe Meetup 10/25: Spooky Rationality Author: Silas Barta Categories: Events (Infohazard: something you could be game-theoretically hurt by learning of.) Every year around Halloween, we like to talk about “spooky rationality” — the things you’ve learned about from LessWrong and rationalist circles that scare you. To repeat the whirlwind tour of examples: Moloch, the problem you can’t help but contribute to! Abandon all hope ye who fail to sign up for cryonics Utility for the Utility Monster! Felicity for the Optimal Throne! Are there some truths man was not meant to know? The existential battle between Bayesians and Barbarians. Similarly, do the recent advances in AI scare you? Claims in If Anyone Builds It? Share your fears at the meetup! *** The meetup is at Central Market, 4001 N. Lamar, in the cafe area. Look for the LW and SSC signs. People start arriving at 1:30 pm, and the main activity will begin at 2:30 pm. Please follow in-store signs and guidance. View this post online & share!

Weird on the upstairs patio area. If you have trouble parking, there’s a lot on the far side of the park off Guadalupe, though it’s a bit of a walk.
