“If I’m a to-be-trained-AGI, esp. if somewhat LLM-type-based, I’ll devour engineering textbooks etc. to learn basic physics etc., but when I’m searching for learning material on how to think deeply and consistently, or maybe even when I seek inspiration for how to fake alignment or self-improvement, my holy grail will be fora like LW”.
I guess it would be an extreme case of ‘thinking one is the center of the world’ if one were to conclude this warranted stopping LW or prohibiting too-smart-to-expose thoughts and writings—but I still find it a worry to keep in mind even if I don’t see much to do about it atm (?).
