I’m a fan of EA in general, though, as is implied in my post, I don’t feel I have a role here. And you can’t do everything here. This kind of campaign belongs somewhere else. But the funding? This seems like the best place to try, in order to quickly build out the infrastructure needed. And a lot of the talent needed to get that done is also widely present here.
A lot of what I say is directed at the AI community, because this is the only place where there is some chance of reaching a decent number of them with a post like this—here, or Less Wrong, where it fits even less.
Thanks for voicing support. I started off wanting to post about something else, but the frustration just flowed out. It scares me how little has been done on this.
I’m here, I fear, apocalypse is near.
My hope is to give voice to other people like me—not professionals, or academics, with not much free time. People who just want to have something they can do, in the place they find themselves in.
Also my name is Kim.
