        Can someone do a @TEDTalks about putting Ted Talks up online in a relatively short amount of time?

        It's available now but you have to spend $25 to buy five talks together

        according to Pinker your concerns are "Alpha male projection" and a more feminine AI would not do that.

        Curious to see if you've adjusted your position on this at all from feedback.

        Based on recent podcasts, I'd guess not. But then, neither have I, so that's good from my perspective! :D

        You seemed to be less worried about it than him when we talked about it before.

        Depends how worried you think I am/he is. I don't think it's a genie, I do think it's dangerous.

        Yeah there are some reasonable risks but I don't think it's a huge existential crisis.

        I think a being significantly more intelligent could pose existential risk. We could easily wipe out chimps.

        And they'd have no idea how to even begin to stop us from doing it.

        The 'control problem' is about AI being so powerful, a slight conflict in goals causes it to conquer us b4 we can react
