A “modest demand”? Yeah, all they want is for us to slow down scientific progress. Which means pushing back the point at which new things are discovered to save lives or ease pain. Which means this would cause death and pain. I’m sure these people mean well, but this is not

I will be truly shocked if SBF gets a pardon. SBF and CZ are not comparable at all. SBF was a Democratic mega-donor before FTX collapsed and he went to prison bankrupt. His name is half punch line half curse word in DC. Not a single serious person wants this. Do not pardon SBF

These people are truly awful. They are willing for real humans to suffer and die today because of their science fiction-inspired fantasy, which they define with spurious precision. They are the real threat to humanity, not Skynet from the Terminator movies. Their project will
