Possessed Machines (possessedmachines.com) uses Dostoevsky's Demons to diagnose AI world's malaise, but stops there. What potent fiction shows the *cure*, the inner experience of intelligence finding its way back to moral feeling? E.g. Bros Karamazov and Les Mis. What else?

Coding agents mean that we are about to enter the golden era of TempleOS style projects. This is a good thing.

I enjoyed this. AFAICT almost everything is downstream of actually caring about the thing (and not so much abstracted consequences), and that's a real virtue of the virtue ethic
Tim Hwang@timhwang

Along w @banksianr, I’ve been thinking a lot about what it would mean to place our thinking about science and science policy on a virtue ethic footing, rather than on utilitarian rails. Our first salvo articulating this “virtue metascience” is out today: macroscience.org/p/virtue-metas…

Thinking about science from a virtue ethics lens does seem truer to how many scientists think about themselves. A scientist once told me “the only people more socialized than academics are nuns and monks.”

If AI psychosis is "giving more credence to LLMs than would be reasonably supported by experience" and you believe that model capabilities are advancing faster than we can incorporate into our frame of reference, than it pays to be just a little bit psychotic all the time now

Now that Nat Friedman is inside of a big company, who will step into his role of initiating and coordinating whimsical science/history projects?
