Good point about sorting by oldest—I will update the instructions. I think people are voting for each thing that they agree is a good idea, even if it is not sufficient. If you think AI should’ve been paused 5 years ago, I think you would agree with “Shut down AI for decades” but you could also agree with other things like pausing if mass unemployment.
This is a critique of your poll formulation methodology, not really a request for clarification. Your answer options are ambiguous or don’t survive some salient framings/worldviews (remain centrally meaningful/answerable there without clarification). This probably explains some of the downvoting.
(There is also a technical issue that’s not on you, but worth noting, where with so many options as comments, LW software issues a warning for mass-voting as a result of taking part in your poll.)

That was a point made by Søren Elverlin, not by me.
