Super interesting and thoughtful post, and also exceptionally well written. I can relate to many points here, and the timing of this post is perfect in the context of discussions we have at Israel and of the ongoing developments in the global movement.
I may respond to some object-level matters later, but just wanted to say that I really hope you keep on thinking and writing! It’d particularly be interesting to read whatever “Intro to AI Safety” you may end up writing :)
Glad it may have invoked some ideas for any discussions you might be having at Israel :) For us in Finland, I feel like I at least personally need to get some more clarity on how to balance EA movement building efforts and possible cause priorization related differences between movement builders. I think this is non-trivial because forming a consensus seems hard enough.
Curious to read any object-level response if you feel like writing one! If I end up writing any “Intro to AI Safety” thing it will be in Finnish so I’m not sure if you will understand it (it would be nice to have at least one coherent Finnish text about it that is not written by an astronomer or a paleontologist but by some technical person).
