A Gentle Introduction to Risk Frameworks Beyond Forecasting
Kieran Farr1y21

Thanks author for this amazing piece, especially bibliography to followup up on some of the direct sources. While I had been introduced to Normal Accident Theory a decade ago, I wasn't familiar with the HEVCR model and it definitely opens up new -- and very practical -- doors to thinking about existential risk in the context of AI.

If use the HEVCR what are the actual "exposure" and "vulnerability" issues for humanity? At least, I would assert that the exposure and vulnerability will vary widely between individuals and population groups. That is a stunning insight that in and of itself deserves future work.

Are we so good to simulate?

Maybe it's even worse and we're just ms dos. Nobody bothers to emulate us except for the fun games
