But 80k has featured various safety researchers working at AGI labs over the years. Eg. see OpenAI.
So it’s more like 80k has created free promotional content, and given their stamp of approval of working at AGI labs (of course ‘if you weigh up your options, and think it through rationally’ like your friends).
I agree that implies that those people are more inclined to spend the time to consider options. At least they like listening to other people give interesting opinions about the topic.
But we’re all just humans, interacting socially in a community. I think it’s good to stay humble about that.
If we’re not, then we make ourselves unable to identify and deal with any information cascades, peer proof, and/or peer group pressures that tend to form in communities.
If everyone I targeted with marketing initiatives listened to an entire 3 hour podcast my job (as a marketer) would be a lot easier.
Of 80k’s entire reach, I’d be surprised if 1% had listened to an entire 3 hour podcast in the last 6 months with a lab.
Most people will glance at their content and see that they’re “working together” (you can replace “working together” with “partnership” or whatever phrase you think is more accurate).
They’re not quite doing a brand partnership.

I generally think people who listen to detail-focused 3 hour podcasts are the sorts of people who weigh up options

I still don’t see how that would be the conclusion people would draw
