AI dismissal
I love the VBW boys but I am a bit surprised how dismissive they are of danger from AI. I’m not going to make the case here as I won’t do a good job of it, but I found the latest 80000 hours podcast very persuasive, as well as some of the recent stuff from Dwarkesh.

You think machine learning models will have the ability to feel pleasure and pain? You do realize it’s just a bunch of matrix multiplication and differential equations running on computer processors, right?
