I wonder if they’ll go back to the “*” pfp?

You mean about your own pfp?
Mine is still the halloween one and the previous was relating to my FGs.
My pfps have Lake Crawford as the background, which was the proposed site for the Anthropocene. Both have an Arthropleura (my favorite organism that could survive in today’s time), original American Airlines logo (from a hilarious situation in one of my FGs), and Clippy (as a protest against YouTube’s AI Authentication and other policies).

Wouldn’t it need extra oxygen to live though?
It lived in somewhat similar oxygenic conditions of today from before the Carboniferous.
The giant size of Arthropleura has been frequently attributed to higher oxygen levels during the Carboniferous.[24] However, this does not align with the fossil record or modern understanding of arthropod size range. Arthropleura reaches giant sizes before the rise in oxygen concentration during the Carboniferous, with the largest known body fossil found in an interval where oxygen levels were only about 23% higher than modern day. More likely, Arthropleura was capable of gigantism due to other generally favourable environmental and ecological conditions and lack of serious competition. Consequently, Arthropleura went extinct during the early Permian, probably due to the desertification of the equatorial regions of the supercontinent and competition with Permian tetrapods.[2]

Not sure it would find a viable niche even then
Maybe remote Jungles and Swamps? It may have been even somewhat amphibious.

Hm. Thought those big arthropods could only prevail in extra high oxygen concentrations…

So some kind of a story community this is from?

Are you asking what kind of a community it’s from? It’s a sci-fi collaborative writing community that places an emphasis on superintelligence and the development of culture along with technology in the far future.

Hm. By the way, by “e/acc” you mean “electronic account” or something else?

It means effective accelerationist.

We’ll see about this AI stuff when the bubble pops…
The bubble isn’t real…
I don’t like to get into this sort of debate since it tends to upset me, but just look at all the papers out there challenge the idea that LLMs are stochastic parrots, especially the ones from Anthropic.
We’ll see about this AI stuff when we’re a galactic utopia.
My pfp has a story to it, basically he was in a war and then the clippy apparition appeared. There is some more lore and some that has yet to appear

It’s much easier to mimic complex behaviour than to actually evolve it…

My pfp is a reference to the OC I made when I was 10

yeahh if that stuff is real we’re all dead. You people have no plan for alignment whatsoever so believing AI won’t go anywhere is basically the only way to defend what accelerationists do.
