Thanks for this Sean! I think work like this is exceptionally useful as introductory information for busy people who are likely to pattern match “advanced AI” to “terminator” or “beyond time horizon”.
One piece of feedback I’ll offer is to encourage you to consider whether it’s possible to link narrow AI ethics concerns to AGI alignment in a way that your last point, “there is work that can be done” shows how current efforts to address narrow AI issues can be linked to AGI. This is especially relevant for governance. This could help people understand why it’s important to address AGI issues now, rather than waiting until narrow AI ethics is “fixed” (a misperception I’ve seen a few times).
