on: Should the AI Safety Community Prioritize Safety Cases?
@Jan Wehner🔸 thanks for writing this.

Please remove your ‘Bart.et al’ reference and replace with the original by Barrett et al. here: [2502.05791] Assessing confidence in frontier AI safety cases. The former is a plagiarised version we are investigating.

Many thanks.

on: How and why to turn everything into audio
Thanks for writing this!
On iPhone, you can use the Amazon Alexa app to read Kindle books for you. It’s a pretty good listen given that it’s not a human reading with full context -it only getting a little hung-up on occasion with some punctuation etc. (Caveat being that I’ve only used this method for about 1hr so far)

I found this method today in my desire to find a way to listen to the tome that is The Matter with Things by Iain McGilchrist, which doesn’t have an audiobook option.
