Brockism Mug
Brockism is one of four factions in the 2023 societal debate about the safety of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) "x-risk", short for Existential Risk, meaning the risk that AGI will lead to human extinction. (1) The "normal" faction, which includes Satya Nadella and everyone on Wall Street. Normals say that we can deal with x-risk later. (2) The "decel" faction (short for "decelerate"), which says to slow down AI research. (3) The "e/acc" faction (short for "effective accelerationists"). This faction is a mix of fanatical techno-utopians (like Yann LeCun and Andrew Ng), mixed with Twitter users who post macho memes and have a "lol let's watch the world burn" attitude. (4) The "Brockism" faction (named after Greg Brockman). Brockists believe the way to reduce x-risk is to accelerate AI software research while halting or slowing semiconductor development. They believe that if chips are too fast, we could stumble into artificial superintelligence by accidentally inventing an algorithm that makes fuller use of existing chips. The difference between what we currently do with current chips vs what we *could* do with current chips is what Brockists call the "capabilities overhang". Evidence for the Brockist position may be found in the accomplishments of the retro-computing "demoscene", which uses innovative software to produce computer graphics on par with the late 1990's on some of the very oldest personal computers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demoscene

i was put on a list for buying this mug. 10/10 would recommend
Great customer service and was a fun surprise for an inside joke to a coworker. 😊
Nice cup! Seems to be a quality piece.
This mug reminds me of when I was happy. When I was a wee little winker enjoying the wonders of this life!
The, "Wenomechainsama" Mug has amazing quality and an amazing definition! Can't belive my child's generation is so funny! Love - Sharen, 55, On facebook !<3
this mug reminds me of my cat, it does nothing and cant pour me a nice cup of joe. It is horrible, it doesn't tell nor does it allow me sip on it. It stops me from drinking from it, its like the mug is trying to torture me.
love this mug! Goes perfect with the Morbius meal.
Had no idea my name had a definition!!
Bought for an inside joke. Perfect.
i love the schizophrenia mug its amazing
This cute mug reminded me of a quote from an obscure biography I found quite by accident in a tiny hole-in-the-wall 2nd hand shop in Portland, ME in 1987: 'The Life and Times of Lazarus of Bethany'. Quote: " We are all walking wounded held together by the scars of our forbearance and the charity of our sisters and brothers." Truer words have never been said.
Love it . Its me down to a T
unlike most mug customization, you can say whatever the fuck you want. Bravo!
i liked that the mug had my name on it and a funny definition, i will definitely buy some for my friends(with their names of course).
I bought it as sort of a gag gift for my son and his new girlfriend and they loved it
I haven't even bought it, it smells nice
nice quality, vivid image
What's funny is the saying that everyone searched for is the one that popped up on the cup. So all the weird gross sayings that people are commenting on are completely out of context to everyone seeing their comment.
I would buy a morbillion of these mugs.
Coffee is good with a banana (minus the Shimflins!)
