I bet a lot of us go through each spell and think "Ok if this were real, how would it lead to infinite free energy?"
The talk drew on a lot of research besides works listed here, particularly the copious LessWrong and adjacent writing on decision theory (e.g. @C_Oesterheld ) and the reading programme @pibbssai
Which introduced empirical work with @JacquesThibs (as part of AI Safety Camp run by @RemmeltE / Linda Linsefors) on evaluating new models for EDT-indicative behaviour in Newcomb's settings...are they memorising or reasoning?
I then moved on to how humans or ideal rational agents make decisions in multi-agent settings (e.g. prisoner's dilemma style problems) and what might happen in newcomb-style settings.
What kind of processes can lead to mind designs and the analogies/differences: optimisation vs evolution; how and when Goodhart's Law shows up....
The axes of variation that constrain/define mind designs (based on work by @anderssandberg / peter eckersley)
The obligatory & excellent viz by @ESYudkowsky
I gave a talk @RWTH 'Politics of the Machine' conference (about human, nonhuman, and machine being through an arts/culture lens) on the design space of possible minds. Talk was half literature review, half about how advanced AI might reason. 🧵

The toxic and contested legacy of Oxford’s Future of Humanity Institute … still, a fascinating influence of philosophers on real life. And a space that stimulated deep and different thinking. Isn’t that the job description? theguardian.com/technology/202…
I've been working on a new product: MakeDistribution.com! It's the best solution to creating a subjective probability distribution, i.e. one that reflects human judgement rather than being fit to data. Sounds simple, but most existing solutions have important flaws (1/15)
The fact that Bostrom once mentioned possible future dysgenic evolution might make him somewhat "eugenic", but not at all "on steroids". For that you'd need him to be going much further with the idea. No evidence of that was offered in the article.
A toxic headline, but based on quotes from only one detractor. And Bostrom is completely right that dysgenic scenarios are possible. theguardian.com/technology/202…
