In this comment we list the names of some of our advisors.

Below is a list of some of the advisors we used for mentor selection. Notes:

  • Two advisors asked not to be named and do not appear here.
  • Advisors by and large focussed their efforts on areas they had some expertise in.
  • Advisors had to flag conflicts of interest, meaning that (for example) we did not take their ratings of themselves into account.

With that out of the way, here are some advisors who helped us for the Winter 2024-25 cohort:

  • Adam Gleave
  • Alex Lawsen
  • Buck Shlegeris
  • Ethan Perez
  • Lawrence Chan
  • Lee Sharkey
  • Lewis Hammond
  • Marius Hobbhahn
  • Michael Aird
  • Neel Nanda

The above people also advised us for the Summer 2025 cohort. We also added the below advisors for that cohort:

  • Alexander Gietelink Oldenziel
  • Ben Garfinkel
  • Caspar Oesterheld
  • Jesse Clifton
  • Nate Thomas

OK, my current evidence is that Jessica Taylor says on Twitter that she knew Ophelia, Ophelia was a Ziz fan, and Ophelia told Jessica that Ophelia was in contact with Somni and Emma prior to the landlord incident.

FWIW I feel like Ophelia's Zizian credentials haven't been that well-established.

Clicking on the word "Here" in the post works.

The link to the website is still broken.

Looking back on this thread, I'm so confused why this comment was highly upvoted. Isn't it kind of obvious that it's reasonable to focus on Eliezer / MIRI because they are super influential (or at least were, with their influence continuing to wane over time)? I think this holds even if there are other problems with shard theory one could address, and even if TurnTrout's complaints about Eliezer/MIRI don't hold water.

Would being in a room with people who are vaping have the same benefits as the fog machine? Obviously it has downsides of smell and other additives, but still - I think this should predict that people maybe don't get airborne illnesses at vaping conventions.

Typo:

We sequencing a typical sample to between one and two billion reads.

Should maybe be "We will be sequencing..."?
