Will the guardian issue a correction to its EA/ manifest/ FTX article?
manifold.markets
79% chance. The Guardian piece here: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/article/2024/jun/16/sam-bankman-fried-ftx-eugenics-scientific-racism Reportedly contains many factual errors: See https://x.com/ohabryka/status/1802563541633024280?t=8IhUv03x6PKq_r5MwLbPuA&s=19 Resolves yes if one or more of these are corrected (either by stealth edit, deleting the article or editors note) by the end of July.

WE DEMAND A CORRECTION TO uh various minor nitpicks

also we swear we totally didn’t get your email

bonus from thread:

I am having a lot of fun on Manifold, but if the team insists on inviting eugenics speakers to conferences, its probably time for me to leave :-/

What exactly is your objection to people exercising their bodily autonomy to implement voluntary eugenics?

    Once again hyperrationalists insist on DEBATE and CORRECTION when the best way to handle a “hit piece” like this is to ignore it.

      If they’re pedantic enough with FACTS and LOGIC they can rationalize it so they’re being oppressed by the normies and not at all responsible for the consequences of their actions.
