I’d prefer if people didn’t share it widely in a low-bandwidth way (e.g., just posting key graphics on Facebook or Twitter) since the conclusions don’t reflect Open Phil’s “institutional view” yet, and there may well be some errors in the report.
Isn’t that in contradiction with posting it to LW (by crossposting)? I mean, it’s in free access for everyone, so anyone that wants to share it can find it.
I expect the examples Ajeya has in mind are more like sharing one-line summaries in places that tend to be positively selected for virality and anti-selected for nuance (like tweets), but that substantive engagement by individuals here or in longer posts will be much appreciated.
I’m assuming part of the point is the LW crosspost still buries things in a hard-to-navigate google doc, which prevents it from easily getting cited or going viral, and Ajeya is asking/hoping for trust that they can get the benefit of some additional review from a wider variety of sources.

Thanks Ben, this is right!
