e/acc's black hole endgame mocked as 'Heaven's Gate level insanity' in AI safety feud

beffjezos posted a vivid e/acc endgame vision: reach a Kardashev 3 civilization, create a black hole child universe, then jump into the singularity so your atoms become part of the universal progeny.
A quote-tweeter mocked the contrast: AI Safety says "don't build more advanced AI because it could kill people," while e/acc says "plunge headfirst into a black hole" — calling it close to Heaven's Gate level insanity. Another round in the safety-vs-accelerationist culture war.
