Thank you for sharing this, I particularly enjoyed the bee comparisons, which I hadn’t seen before.
I didn’t quite follow the logic behind “working on cool AI projects now seems positive to me”.
It’s perhaps because I don’t know quite what you mean by “working on cool AI projects”.
Are you saying that capabilities research on a “cool AI project” is safer than capabilities research at OpenAI or Anthropic? If so I’m not clear on why?
Or does a cool AI project mean applying AI rather than developing new capabilities?
