I thought I was pretty clear in the post that I don’t have anything against MIRI. I guess if I were to provide feedback, the one thing I most wish MIRI would do more is hire additional researchers—I think MIRI currently has too high of a hiring bar.
I did not think you had anything against MIRI. It’s just that leaving your position there provides you more allowance to be candid when giving critical feedback.
I would probably have asked this question to any MIRI staff who was departing. If there was ever a time to get opinions on what MIRI was doing wrong, it’s now.
