Hi Sasha. I have only made such bets with Greg Colbourn and David Manheim. I have proposed similar bets many times. People with short timelines usually say they had better take a loan from a bank, which is fair. They do not expect to pay it fully due to a global catastrophe, or expect to pay part of it super easily due to extreme abundance. On the other hand, I suspect many of them have not taken loans up to the point of marginal borrowed money being neutral (instead of beneficial) under their views about AI.
Have you had any takers (who you can publicly name) other than Greg?
