I currently work on Fatebook (a tool to allow you to create low-friction personal forecasts) as part of Sage. I’m always looking for feedback on the site and I love chatting to users—if you book a user call I will donate £10 to a charity of your choosing.

I’m based in London and interested in AI safety, forecasting, community building, rationality, mental health, games, running and probably other stuff.

Before I was a programmer I was a professional poker player, where I picked up the habit of calculating the EV of almost every action in my life, and subsequently discovered EA.

If you want to learn more about me, you can check out my website here: https://​​jonnyspicer.com

If you’re interested in chatting then I’m always open to meet new people! https://​​calendly.com/​​jonnyspicer/​​ea-1-2-1

[Question] Whose track record of AI pre­dic­tions would you like to see eval­u­ated?
