    The man probably went insane after psychedelic use

    So parts of his manifesto (which was short) was published, and it was pain that radicalized him, ah well a superpredictor like Yud can’t be right all the times. If only he had the image of a blade of grass that could have been a hint, sadly we did not.

    Spoiler for the image link.

    The image is a scan of a persons back with various medical rods in the back, which was part of the (ALLEGED) shooters twitter image before it got deleted. The blade of grass thing is a reference to an infamous story of Yud about how AGI could figure out another universes physics just by looking at a video frame of a blade of grass bending in the wind.

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.
