What core tenets do you reject?
Utilitarianism and Bayesian updating are bad models of how people should behave. I'm also pretty skeptical about AI.

Skeptical in what sense?

I think the problem is harder and less amenable to exponential take offs than is claimed, and the dangerous failures look more like "capitalism but more so" than universal paperclips.

I understand rejecting utilitarianism, but what's wrong with Bayesian reasoning? (Not that I do it explicitly, as I just can't be bothered...)

Bayesian reasoning is fine for the cases to which it can reasonably be applied, but the amount of work to cast problems in a useful Bayesian form is often significantly greater than solving the problem with another method, and people tend to half-arse it instead.
