I was confused about the situation with debate, so I talked to Evan Hubinger about his experiences. That conversation was completely wild; I’m guessing people in this thread might be interested in hearing it. I still don’t know exactly what to make of what happened there, but I think there are some genuine and non-obvious insights relevant to public discourse and optimization processes (maybe less to the specifics of debate outreach). The whole thing’s also pretty funny.
I recorded the conversation; don’t want to share publicly but feel free to DM me for access.
