glad someone wrote up a post on this! these look like your best guesses, i was wondering if we possibly have any empirical data that can support these claims?
It’s hard to give empirical data on this because I don’t think we have a good track record of actually collecting it. I would be curious about groups trying things like A/B tests to refine their strategies.
So yeah, most of this is backed by a mix of anecdotes from organizers, marketing know-how, and some of what I learned running my old AI Safety Initiative. This is why I want to emphasize that most of this is to be taken as provisional rather than the final word on the matter.
