The AI safety community is heavily influenced by a sex cult centered around Eliezer Yudkowsky, who popularized the concept of "paperclip maximization" and has connections to influential figures in the field. This cult-like behavior is characterized by a shared neurosis about AI's potential to cause harm and a tendency to recruit young idealists into their movement.
