    cited as reason to allow LLM contributions experimentally:

    Instead of using ethical concerns as a basis for policy, we should justify policy on the basis of how something is impacting our ability as a project to deliver a really great programming language.

    if the orphan grinder lets us make a better programming language then FIRE THOSE BABIES UP

              @Athena That reasoning from the Rust devs... I'm sorry but how is it different from eugenics? Proponents of eugenics also had the betterment of the species as a stated goal. Both of them are putting aside ethical concerns in the name of apparent progress.

              Also, any statement that starts out with "Instead of using ethical concerns as a basis for policy" should have everything following discarded because it doesn't say anything important. You started out with stating you don't give a shit about ethics so quite frankly anything else you're saying is null and void

                  @hsza thank you! I credit spending my entire teenage years disassociating into internet arguments (and programming, but that’s less relevant here)

                          @reiddragon in fairness, that isn’t the opening line, it’s a few paragraphs in

                          in continuing fairness, the additional paragraphs do not help one iota

                                    @Athena this is legit like a sentence that someone could use to justify using sweatshops or slave labor

                                    which is not a good thing for an argument to be

                                      I believe I have previously read so, but I don't recall a source.

                                      He did a lot of hunan experimenting, and even if was done entirely for his own sadistic pleasures, he must have learned something along the way.

                                        @Athena oh yes, it has, but you underestimate how many people on the team are pissed about that and want it to change but need to be diplomatic about it so they don't lose their jobs or positions

                                        like, the tech industry is extremely unfavorable to people who dissent to LLMs and just showing up and complaining that people aren't doing enough is putting these people in impossible positions where they agree with you but are forced to say nothing and let the fascists dunk on you because they can't be so overt about it

                                        I've been especially frustrated lately because this has been happening to me too, but like, at least I know what the situation is and am working on changing it. again, I'm just pointing out that even though you were extremely tame in the discussion relative to what you're saying here, all you did is invite more folks to throw shit and get the discussion locked so now not even I can comment on it

                                        historically this is a great way to not change anything

                                          @leeloo I am extremely hesitant to jump to the conclusion that some useful learning must have come out of it. One can do all kinds of experiments without producing usable scientific knowledge. It’s possible to just be evil and fucked up and call it something with an ounce of virtue like “experiments” without any actual virtue

                                          And I believe this is what I recall from what I read of the man
