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.

      The most important difference between Proof-of-Work and Proof-of-Stake is that PoW brings revenue to GPU and ASIC manufacturers, which affects R&D timelines for computing hardware, which affects AGI timelines. And yet people obsess over a bunch of trivial other properties.

      But is AGI good or bad for humans?

      My mental model of @ESYudkowsky says "inevitable, really good if done right, really bad if done poorly, and we'd have a much better shot at getting it right if we had more time to get better at the alignment stuff"

          Cool, Vitalik seems to have an Eliezer instance running on his brain... Does that mean you're friends, and if so, do you have a Vitalik instance in your brain Eliezer? #hpmor

          If the JTBD is "AGI Alignment", there are neglected ways to address it, imo: "More time" is one way, so incentivize "slowness". (Esp. in the age of jerk, not acceleration.) Technology is informed by society, so how can we change society to change tech?https://twitter.com/RhysLindmark/status/933517431795998722 …
