A machine learning researcher is claiming to have knowledge of kinky drug-fueled orgies in Silicon Valley’s storied hacker houses — and appears to be linking those parties, and the culture surrounding them, to OpenAI.
What follows is a vague and anecdotal diatribe about the “dark side” of startup culture — made particularly explosive by Joseph’s reference to so-called “consensual non-consent” sex parties that she says took place within the artificial general intelligence (AGI) enthusiast community in the valley.
The jumping off point, as far as we can tell, stems from a thread announcing that OpenAI superalignment chief Jan Leike was leaving the company as it dissolved his team that was meant to prevent advanced AI from going rogue.
At the end of his X thread, Leike encouraged remaining employees to “feel the AGI,” a phrase that was also ascribed to newly-exited OpenAI cofounder Ilya Sutskever during seemingly cultish rituals revealed in an Atlantic exposé last year — but nothing in that piece, nor the superalignment chief’s tweets, suggests anything having to do with sex, drugs, or kink.
“I don’t think events like the consensual non-consensual (cnc) sex parties and heavy LSD use of some elite AI researchers have been good for women,” Joseph continued.
“I just observed the surrounding AI culture through the community house scene in SF, as a fly-on-the-wall, hearing insider information and backroom deals, befriending dozens of women and allies and well-meaning parties, and watching many them get burned.”
