Living in DC for four years and making friends with a number of smart, motivated people working on various political thinktank projects… It seems to me perhaps that you are underestimating how much there are already sensible people trying to push for sensible legislation and not making a lot of notable progress. I mean, I wish you luck, but I feel like politics in general and US politics in particular is such a tangled mess that I feel rather low on hope for your quest. Especially within the short timeframes I expect we have until the world starts getting turned upside down by weird AI tech acceleration even before outright AGI.
