Ours is the era of inadequate AI alignment theory. Any other facts about this era are relatively unimportant, but sometimes I tweet about them anyway.

    1. If you print enough money, inflation rises. 2. If inflation doesn't rise, you didn't print enough money. Literally logical implication.

        @ESYudkowsky if printing money doesn't cause inflation to rise it's not clear why the government is still taxing us

        @ESYudkowsky If you print money and leave it in a vault (or the Fed's account) it has no impact. Have to get the money into circulation.

        @ESYudkowsky Yes but read naturally you've equivocated on 'enough'. In 1 it means 'Enough for inflation to occur', not 'The right amount'.

        @ESYudkowsky This assumes an understanding, and a conceptually coherent definition, of "printing" and "money." \="currency-like things."

        @ESYudkowsky Following this naïvely leads to overestimating the amount of money to print, and hyperinflation. Inflation is not a boolean.

        @esyudkowsky @uncrediblehallq use a non-classical logic then. ;P
