Almost none of the students read it (it wasn’t required, and seemed a bit out of place in the context of the other materials).
One of the professors seemed on board of Torres’ arguments such as that longtermists will justify anything (especially interests of “the rich”) by arguing for bogus probabilities and quantities of future people.
(in the end we exchanged a few words about how it’s funny that our twitter bubbles lead us to think that opposite things are the consensus)
I’m curious what they thought of Torres?
