Great points, I agree both of those are concerns, and don’t have much to add. I think the risk of further democratic backsliding in the U.S. is very real, and could be AI-exacerbated. But I suppose a risk of backsliding is better than China already being autocratic.
And interesting re alt proteins, yes that seems quite plausible to me! If this ends up being hte crux it would probably be worth foing more surveys and social science work to understand this better.
