Curated! There’s a difficult-to-bridge divide between the intuitions of people who think everything is going to get really crazy with AG and those who think a kind of normality will be maintained. This post seems to do an uncommonly good job of piercing the divide by arguing in detail and mechanistically for why current picture doesn’t obviously continue. More generally, it argues for a better epistemic approach.
I struggle encountering people who predict reality being not-that-different in coming decades: it feels crazy to me, but that reaction makes it harder to discuss. I think the contents and example of this post point at where discussion can be had, suggesting both object and meta level places to explore cruxes. It’s a valuable contribution. Kudos!
