simple life interventions if you believe in LLM scaling laws (apply even under minimal assumption of "shits gon get weird", no diamondoid nanobots necesarry):
@suntzugi@sama said we'd have superhuman intelligence by 2027 & nobody blinked
How are you preparing anon?
- stop contributing to your 401k (unless your match rate is higher than tax + penalty for early withdrawal)
- don't bother getting a mortgage, but if you do go for lower down payment and higher rates
- drop out of med school, phds, or any other educational tracks that take more than ~3 years for meaningful roi
- give up on any dreams of personally teaching your children usable skills / debating best ways to raise kids in general
- plan on exiting the dating market before it turns into (even more of) a memetic tech warzone
- begin psychological preparations to divest any work related load-bearing identities, you better be able to love yourself even if you're useless to society
fuck if we'd had agi already i wouldnt have made a typo in the first tweet, WYA SAM
