Authors:
Daniel Kokotajlo (TIME100, NYT piece) is a former OpenAI researcher whose previous AI predictions have held up well.
Eli Lifland co-founded AI Digest, did AI robustness research, and ranks #1 on the RAND Forecasting Initiative all-time leaderboard.
Thomas Larsen founded the Center for AI Policy and did AI safety research at the Machine Intelligence Research Institute.
Romeo Dean is completing a computer science concurrent bachelor鈥檚 and master鈥檚 degree at Harvard and previously was an AI Policy Fellow at the Institute for AI Policy and Strategy.
Scott Alexander, blogger extraordinaire, volunteered to rewrite our content in an engaging style; the fun parts of the story are his and the boring parts are ours.
I found this to be an excellent if not somewhat terrifying read. I鈥檓 curious which parts seem likely and if there鈥檚 any parts you didn鈥檛 find believable.
I don鈥檛 know about the AI projections, but the idea that the current US administration would have a reasoned, thoughtful response to any emerging threat from AI or react in a constructive way to widespread public protests over it is what strains credulity for me.
Stupid masturbatory fantasy exactly like you鈥檇 expect by the morons with those resumes. Equal parts delusional and racist.
