I think that’s what most people who were or want to be part of the rationalist community want to work on now. That’s what Scott Alexander does full time with SSC and his comments. Even on LW despite the weird and dated rules, everyone wants to discuss this stuff and work on slowly figuring it out. I don’t think anyone really cares how a 22 year old has reinterpreted EY’s post on cognitive biases or some new version of AI risk(and I say that having put all my faith in 22 year old engineering kids saving the world).
I’ll probably just post on it more now here, and see what happens.
yeah, you should do. I feel like knowing the key posts and ideas is helpful. For example West Hunter has a wide range of types of posts: some are goofing off and some are really important. Same with gnxp.
