The best Effective Altruism podcast is by @80000Hours. But I think a close second is @hearthisidea by @finmoorhouse and @lucafrighetti. They have interviewed @RoryStewartUK, @anderssandberg and countless other amazing guests. Here are the best take aways from my favourite…
Superb podcast with Joe Carlsmith coming back on his "Scheming AIs" November 2023 paper. Deceptive alignment, training performance, and why goals that extend beyond AI-systems training could lead to scheming 👏

→ How might the basic case for AI x-risk turn out to be misleading? → (How) should we, and can we, slow down AI? Listen to @KatjaGrace — hearthisidea.com/episodes/grace/
→ Why focus on reducing existential risk from AI? → How could we come up with plans for doing that? What are some promising “intermediate goals”? → How can people usefully contribute to AI governance work? Listen to Michael Aird from @RethinkPriors — hearthisidea.com/episodes/aird-…

@nemocentric Very fun! A bit different from J.S. Mill's speech that we ought to leave coal in the ground for future generations or Jevon's worry about imminent peak coal. x.com/willmacaskill/…
In 1886, John Stuart Mill gave a speech to Parliament about whether his generation should leave coal in the ground for the benefit of future generations. He referred to this as “The Coal Question”.
