  This is an amazing overview of the field. Even if it won’t collect tons of upvotes, it is super important, and saved me many hours. Thank you.

  I tried to use the exact quotes while describing things that they sent me because it’s easy for me to misrepresent their actions, and I don’t want tit to be the case.

  Totally agree. But in other cases, when the agent was discouraged against dceiving, it did it too.

  Thanks for your thoughtful answer. It’s interesting how I just describe my observations, and people make conclusions out of it that I didn’t think of

  The meaninglessness comes from the idea akin to to “why bother with anything if AGI will destroy everything it”
  
  Read Feynman’s citation from the beginning. It describes his feelings about atom bomb that are relevant for some people’s thoughts about AGI.

  Your comment is somewhat along the lines of the stoic philosophy.

  Hi
  
  In this post you asked to leave the names of therapists familiar with alignment.
  
  I am such a therapist. I live in the UK. That’s my website.
  
  I recently wrote a post about my experience as a therapist with clients working on AI safety. It might serve as indirect proof that I really have such clients.

  This is tricky. May it exacerbate your problems?
  
  Anyway. If there’s a chance I can helpful for you, let me know.

  These problems are not unique to AI safety, but they are present way more often with my clients working on AI safety, than with my other clients.
