wow that's a great article! thanks @wheat knot and everyone who organised and participated!
Thanks so much to everyone who participated!
Have we track when we have had more presence in the media and when not? Could it be the fact that there is not other really important stuff going like on the wars/ elections?
OpenAI was a big draw
[openAI] is in talks with the US government about helping prevent veteran suicide
let me guess.. returning vets will get robot companions that help them think more pure thoughts ?

Virtually all comments are very sympathetic!
Thanks to @prisma compass
Hmm, the comments looked civil when I looked there. Maybe the mods really don't want anything to do with protesting?
Could it be that they looked civil because in the background, the mods were deleting thousands of posts, and they got tired with it? 😅
IIRC in reddit you can always see if comments are deleted
Can anyone do a "why is the top upvoted post gone?" post? 👀
As pauseAI founder I would not feel comfortable making that post, but I'd be really glad if someone else did!
I don't have a reddit account and an empty one would look suspicous, otherwise I'd do it 😅
Yeah I think having people make posts about why it was deleted would seem a bit too much like brigading/self-promotion and work against us. I wouldn't be surprised if the post got deleted because they were worried it was protesters self-promoting their own event (which they'd be wrong about as I wasn't there! I just thought it was important news).
I messaged the mods to ask if I broke a rule.
Volunteer opportunity! Would anyone like to write a hype report for me on the coverage of the protest?
What's a hype report? I have a list of coverage on this page https://pauseai.info/press
