Eric Weinstein: 100% of the population has gone completely insane — And here’s the proof
Not a metaphor.
He says you can pretty much prove it.
Biden spent four years with the nuclear football while declining. Almost nobody treated it as a crisis. Stage-managed, like Roosevelt.
The entire management of COVID was completely fake.
We still can’t “get to the bottom” of Jeffrey Epstein.
Nobody trusts Harvard. People are losing faith in CNN.
Everything is bananas, fictionalized, managed wall-to-wall.
We’re living in what he calls managed reality.
Most people have accepted it.
He’s stuck watching it.

Top mathematician: "The shock is immense. I am paralyzed."
"Not a single one of the major open problems of my career was left untouched by the announcement."
"I expected to see a few of them in the list. But not all of them. Not all at once. Not with such nonchalance."
"I expected that one day we would be surpassed. But yesterday's announcement hit with a force I had not anticipated."
@AndrewCurran_: "Please resist the urge to mock the mathematicians struggling through this moment. Whatever your field, your expertise, your passion, you too shall one day experience what they are going through. And when you remember your words, you will feel remorse."
"OpenAI's model solved most of the math problems from a single prompt.
It did not even exist before the end of August.
Each result used 3 hours of thinking.
It was given 4000 problems. How many more have been solved in the last 3 days?"
WHY OPENAI EMPLOYEES ARE SO WORRIED:
"I don't think Pacing the Frontier was just about Hugging Face or hacking. The employees have seen how close we are to closing the loop [recursive self-improvement)], and as the hour draws near, their resolve begins to quaver.
All that was needed to start the event was the ability for models to think of novel ways to improve themselves. That was the last piece.”
These same kinds of alien solutions are now being applied to model improvements internally. That's what all this recent consternation is really about. And they see what is about to happen."
"We are in the takeoff."
