I wish that I had easy answers I could link. I’ve looked at a lot of angles in this space (everything from AI for epistemics to collective deliberation/digital democracy tools all the way to the Deep Lore of agent foundations/FEP etc.), and I haven’t found anything like a satisfying solution package. Even stuff I wrote up I was not happy with. My current project plan is to try and deconfuse myself about a lot of these topics, and working to bridge the gap between the theory of machine learning as we historically understood it and theories of biological learning. I think the divide between ML systems and biological systems is smaller than people think, and therefore there is both more room for multi-scalar cooperation and also more risk of danger from misconceptions and mistreatment.
Would love to discuss more in DMs/email if you feel up for it or have thoughts to share, most of my relevant contact info/past work can be found here: https://utilityhotbar.github.io
Hey David,

Sounds like we’re in the same boat!
