When Eliezer says “this is exactly the misunderstanding I’m complaining about” and “the related lesson is false and not valuable” I start to question my own sanity.
I am confused why Eliezer (or someone else who understand the idea correctly) didn’t complain about it much earlier.
I mean, imagine that you are trying to do something that literally saves the world, you have a popular blog where you explain your ideas, you make a popular metaphor, almost everyone misinterprets it as something false and not valuable… and you wait for a decade until you post a not-very-clear tweet about that?
