This post introduces a unique approach to AI alignment by advocating for a human-in-the-loop strategy where AI tools are designed to enhance human agency rather than function as autonomous agents. This perspective offers an alternative to the conventional path of developing independent AI systems, emphasizing safety and the importance of maintaining human oversight. By suggesting that AI should augment human capabilities instead of replacing them, the post adds a valuable and distinct viewpoint to the broader alignment discussion.

This idea challenges the o... (read more)

if only someone had an explanation for why an increase in productivity wouldn’t lead to eliminating poverty, if only someone had written perhaps several volumes expounding on the subject, a german born 1818 perhaps

A thought-provoking piece, thank you. It strikes me that the indigenous wisdom referenced in your closing paragraphs may hint at possibilities far beyond those the article explores. We are indeed in a 'dreamtime' where futures remain fluid - but perhaps these futures could be more expansive than imagined here.

Labour-replacing AI might enable modes of transformative impact that have been historically underexplored or undervalued. The exclusively male, post-Enlightenment Western references from your analysis do reflect the reality of whose contributions have... (read more)

Hi, 

Really profound stuff! I'd love it if one day there could be a further analysis of the other glitch tokens to see if there's an archetype pantheon of sorts in there.. 

Anyway I loaded up the leilan json file, a bunch of OVS transmissions, and other lesswrong articles about this, and I put all this into notebooklm and produced a first podcast about what glitch tokens are, and who leilan is etc. 

But now I have made a part 2, where I am looking at the concept of duality in andean cosmovision and with reference in particular to the concept of... (read more)

Intelligence, unlike flying, is a universal function that creates inpayable advantage, as well as the willing to continue itself. Some whales consumes thousands of times of energy compared to human. It won't be difficult for them to evolve for ten times of brain neurons (or even hundreds of times of human-type brain neurons) if those are not required to be delicately designed.

Good read it was. 👏
