I actually have a prototype of "Claude/LLM integrated into LessWrong" that makes it easy to load LW content into the context. I could enable that for you but it's actually on Claude 3.5, iirc. Should maybe update it, check that it still works well, and let people try it out.

Making it easy to export content though is an alternative.

Haha. I kinda woulda liked to have the posts without the karma and be asked to estimate the karma for each...I feel like I would have gotten these directionally right but you know, wasn't an advanced prediction ;)

I'm curious if they persist in seeming that way. I've realized that for me there are people who felt that for a slice of time, but later didn't, for no clear reason.

Six years ago we introduced Shortform (later renamed Quick Takes) to LessWrong. Here's a meme-format thing we made at the time. How do people reckon it's gone? h/t @Raemon 

Cheers! I think we've thought about this but I'll raise with the team again.

Reading A Self-Dialogue on The Value Proposition of Romantic Relationships, had the following thought: 

There's often a "proposition" and separately "implications of the proposition". People often deny a proposition in order to avoid the implications, e.g. Bucket Errors 

I wonder how much "you're perfect as you are" is an instance. People need to say or believe this to avoid some implication, but if you could just avoid the implication it would be okay to be imperfect.

Not having played this side of it so can't say I've tried this, but I'd try putting something in your bio that solicits useful filtering info at the start, like "if you ping me or we match, please start by telling me/answering...", and try to find a prompt there that's informative for what you're looking for. It might be as dumb as reading comprehension or more like "what kind of relationship are you hoping for?" or "life values". But I would iterate on it. An unintuitive thing to do would be then to also proceed further with people who give answers you don't like much, to see if you're getting false negatives because the early screen is bad.

Another idea is to put in your bio stuff that matters to/about you (that's important) but would dissuade suitors and let them filter themselves out earlier.

My personal favorite filter is writing though. You might not get many takers but "link to me to your blog" is a way to get a lot more info about someone.

I just coded a fix for this, will get deployed soon.

I applaud you taking this seriously and saying the hard critical things. It is concerning and I do worry about the sign of everything we do.

I think there might exist people who feel that way (e.g. reactors above) but Yudkowsky/Soares, the most prominent doomers (?), are on the record saying they think alignment is in principle possible, e.g. opening paragraphs of List of Lethalities. It feels like a disingenuous strawman to me for Dario to dismiss doomers with.
