For some reason LW is obsessed by the idea that this encyclical (specifically its Italian version) was written with the help of an LLM.

LessWrong, a group blog supposedly devoted to the science of living rationally, but in practice ground zero for some truly culty behavior. The Zizians arose from that community, for example.

LessWrong, an online community that started out as a place to discuss Yudkowski's writings, who among other things is the If You Build It Everyone Dies guy.

LessWrong also directly gave us Effective Altruism and the Zizians.

The Pope has not charged Catholics worldwide to burn down the data centres. Cool as that would be.

If we just push a littleee bit harder we can get there. Never give up!

I'm not really interested in anything the pope OR LLM companies have to say about this, the problem is systemic and with Governments/war/Capitalism.
