Scott was originally part of the Rationalist / LessWrong crowd
[quote name="blackwater"]Scott agreed with a lot of the ideas of Eliezer Yudkowski and those guys. He was really into utilitarianism and artificial intelligence. He also posted about really offbeat stuff like Jewish mysticism, science fiction that he wrote, imaginary countries that he wrote the histories for, the replication crisis in science, etc. His day job involved prescribing antidepressants and other medication. His blog posts on this topic were always a little more authoritative, but that actually wasn't a big part of his output. Scott was also in agreement with the human biodiversity (HBD) guys, although he didn't talk a lot about this. I guess that's why the NYT wanted to doxx him?[/quote]
