Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

AI doctors will revolutionize medicine! You'll go to a service hosted in Thailand that can't take credit cards, and pay in crypto, to get a correct diagnosis. Then another VISA-blocked AI will train you in following a script that will get a human doctor to give you the right diagnosis, without tipping that doctor off that you're following a script; so you can get the prescription the first AI told you to get.

Can't get mifepristone or puberty blockers? Just have a chatbot teach you how to cast Persuasion!

Joking, but only after the bluechecks are done writing their circlejerk fanfic and someone ratios him.

It's got the cadence of a joke and I guess the humor is supposed to be him being self aware of how contrived the plan is. But couldn't you just ask the magically persuasive AI to write a letter to VISA telling them to unblock AI doctors? I dunno why every problem needs to be solved like soft modding a PS2.

Or maybe it's supposed to be a joke on credit card companies who refuse to serve AI doctors? Owning VISA by paying not only the doctor's fee you'd have paid anyway, but also for an AI doctor and oration instructor in cryptocurrency.

Dude just make your AI god-king decriminalize drugs and you can do all the amphetamines you like.

1 - prove a thing exists (AI doctors) 2 - discuss the properties of a thing (AI doctors)

VISA-blocked AI

How does this even occur to someone? What a weird phrase.
