Max Tegmark recently published a post "Which side of the AI safety community are you in?", where he carves the AI safety community into 2 camps: Camp A) "Race to superintelligence safely”: People in this group typically argue that "superintelligence is inevitable because of X”, and it's therefore better that their in-group (their company or country) build it first. X is typically some combination of “Capitalism”, “Molloch”, “lack of regulation” and “China”. Camp B) “Don’t race to

🌟Episode SummaryHello, beautiful souls, and welcome to Beyond the Belief.I feel like so much of the spiritual conversation I see is about shutting the ego down—telling it to be quiet, making it the enemy, and jousting with it as if it’s something to be annihilated.But what if that entire belief is what’s causing us so much struggle?What if our ego isn’t our foe, but our friend?This exact topic was a profound key to my own awakening. When I first read Michael A. Singer’s The Untethered Soul and

Current AI models are strange. They can speak—often coherently, sometimes even eloquently—which is wild. They can predict the structure of proteins, beat the best humans at many games, recall more facts in most domains than human experts; yet they also struggle to perform simple tasks, like using computer cursors, maintaining basic logical consistency, or explaining what they know without wholesale fabrication. Perhaps someday we will discover a deep science of intelligence, and this will ...

This linkpost is in part a response to @Raemon's comment about why the procedure Raemon did doesn't work in practice to deal with the selection effects I talked about in my last post. So in the last post, I was talking about a selection effect where believers of an argument can come to believe that their idea is true and that their critics are crazy wrong/trolling/dumb, no matter what argument is used. And the believers are half-right, in that their random error swamps any truth signal/evidence for

Martin Heidegger was born in 1889 in Messkirch, a rural Catholic town in southwestern Germany. His upbringing was humble; his father was a sexton. Young Heidegger was initially headed for the priesthood – he even started seminary – but he developed an intense interest in philosophy (spurred by reading Brentano) and switched to studying that at the University of Freiburg. He earned his doctorate and then worked under Edmund Husserl, the founder of phenomenology.By the 1920s, Heidegger’s own

There is some concern that training AI systems on content predicting AI misalignment will hyperstition AI systems into misalignment. This has been discussed previously by a lot of people: Anna Salamon, Alex Turner, the AI Futures Project, Miles Kodama, Gwern, Cleo Nardo, Richard Ngo, Rational Animations, Mark Keavney and others. In this post, I analyze whether AI developers should filter out discussion of AI misalignment from training data. I discuss several details that I don't think have been

Anlam mı aramalıyım?Yoksa sadece, her şeyiyle canlı bir hayat mı yaşamalıyım?Bu bölüm, huzurdan çok derinliği, düzenin içinde değil, kırılmaların arasında filizlenen bir bilgeliği konuşuyor.Oishi’nin söylediği gibi, belki de en dolu hayat, tam da “nasıl yaşamalıyız” sorusunun kesin bir cevabını
