It might interest you to know that Kurzgesagt recently learned that they are the type of people who would read lesswrong, and have done videos on ideas like Grabby Aliens, and have taken commissions from OpenPhil. But they arrived at the creed independently. I dug into the sources for their video on accelerating cosmological expansion and found no overlap with the sources of Ord’s paper on accelerating expansion. I’ve also never heard of the ancient life hypothesis around our parts, despite that being the kind of thing we’d be into. So it’s possible that they just have access to some higher quality idea-brokers than lesswrong and aren’t really going to end up hanging out here x]
