I could be described as supporting the book in the sense that I preordered it, and I bought two extra copies to give as gifts. I’m planning to give one of them tomorrow to an LLM-obsessed mathematics professor at San Francisco State University. But the reason I’m giving him the book is because I want him to read it and think carefully about the arguments on the merits, because I think that mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority. It’s about the issue, not supporting MIRI or any particular book.
