To enter the ‘Essays on Longtermism’ competition, you need to write a post responding to one of the chapters in the collection (or a theme from across the collection).
But there are a lot of essays in the collection (well done GPI).
In this thread, authors from the collection will introduce their chapters, and highlight problems or further questions that they still have about the contents. Hopefully, this will help you (the possible entrant) decide which essay to respond to!
If you aren’t an author from the collection, but a specific essay really interests you and you’d like to see people take the ideas and run further, feel free to use this thread to argue for it.
Update: I’ll leave this thread up until EOD on the 19th of September, to give the authors time to write their comments.
