Same author/content, yep

This is a much more in-depth article that grew out of that bluesky thread.

It either changes it completely or not at all, a tragic sort of syntactic ambiguity. Though, from the first few lines of the archived article someone else posted,

"We might some day have “AI Safety”, as a science or policy area, that is not primarily a sex cult in Berkeley, California, but it does not currently exist"

So in this case, "in Berkeley" does not change the meaning.
