This. The EA orientation towards the felt experience of suffering and, by extension, compassion is so fucked. The president of Stanford EA told me he'd noticed other EAs feeling cold + calculating where he felt warm + compassionate, and wondered if he should be colder.https://twitter.com/Malcolm_Ocean/status/1116967983539269632 …
I told him it was deeply important to continue feeling compassion and that IMO the other EAs were doing it wrong. Could be phrased as the "human alignment problem": without access to compassion how do you know what you're doing has anything to do with human values?
To me it feels unfair to call this "The EA orientation". Some EAs are cold. Not all of us are!
Listen man, I write on Twitter to avoid needing to fully disclaim and caveat all of my claims :| "The EA" doesn't mean "literally every EA," it means (my experience of) EA culture / the EA egregore.
