In your ChatGPT session, a typical example it cites is:
In the AXRP discussion, she also says there were concerns that making the report seem too slick or official could increase capabilities interest.
I think those examples don’t meaningfully support the original claim, at least as a typical reader would understand it.
I have no interest in defending ChatGPT’s claims here, and feel like I caveated that pretty explicitly. I agree that quote is largely irrelevant.
I asked ChatGPT to try to find examples and it didn’t find anything.
Yep, I agree with you that ChatGPT did not find any clear quotes (though it doesn’t look like ChatGPT tried very hard to find quotes). I disagree that it didn’t find “anything at all like that” (indeed ChatGPT is quite explicit that it found some things “kind of like that”).
I don’t recall any examples of Ajeya saying or implying anything at all like that.
I do. As I said, I could go and dig them up but it would take quite a while, and I am only like 75% confident they are written up as opposed to conversations, or private Google Docs or something that I would have trouble finding. It was a strong vibe I got at the time and I remember having a few conversations about adjacent conversations either with Ajeya or being about Ajeya.
Let me know if you want me to do this. I don’t quite know what’s at stake here for you, and I feel somewhat like we are talking past each other and before I do that it would be more productive to go up some meta-level, but I am not quite sure.
