Does all this downvoting imply that people here are against public ownership of AGI, favoring instead a concentration of power within a small group of billionaires? Am I misunderstanding something? Wow!
I hope I’m mistaken, because if not, it would suggest that effective altruism implies society as a whole is incapable of managing its own affairs, requiring a billionaires’ club to act as overseers. This seems akin to having the fox guard the henhouse.
You have valid concerns, and I agree that we need democratic oversight (not ownership!) over transformative technologies, and I’m currently working on a project that aims to address this (https://raisedbyhumanity.org). I think you got all these downvotes because this essay feels like it was written by ChatGPT.
