I am driven by the desire to have a positive impact in the world, empower others to become the best version of themselves, and take full ownership of solving challenging problems through autonomous decision-making.
I've recently co-founded TamperSec, a startup where we protect Hardware against the most sophisticated physical attacks.
Really enjoyed reading this, it's a refreshing approach to tackle the issue, giving practical examples of what risk scenarios would look like.
I initially saved this post to read thinking it would provide counterarguments to AI being an x-risk, which to some degree it did.
Pointing out that some of these mistakes that can lead to AI being an x-risk are "rather embarrassing" is really compelling, I wonder how likely (in percentages of confidence) you see those mistakes to be made. Because even though these mistakes might be really embarrassing, depending on the setting and who can make them as you mention in the post, they are more or less likely.
