Who is the intended audience for the book? Is there something your hoping to achieve with the book or did you just want to write a book?
In this book you interview lots of people in AI. As somewhat of an outsider, do you have any views on things you think the AI safety community is wrong about, ideas that seem far-fetched, or things they should be focusing more on?
Do you think religion is an important part of British culture and heritage? Could I be a genuine Anglofuturist as an atheist?
Someone told me you don’t like reading books, is that correct? If so, what made you want to write a book regardless?
How did you end up interested in both Effective Altruism and Anglofuturism? They seem like pretty different communities. What are some things you think EA gets wrong and Anglofuturism gets right and vice versa?
What advice would you have for someone looking to get into science communication? What are the main mistakes you see?
What’s thing do you think effective altruists most commonly get wrong about global health, or an area where you have different views?
Favourite gelato flavour?
How excited are you about the possibility of creating accurate virtual cells, and how realistic do you think it is in the near future?

Can you explain why you think doing safety work at these places is bad?
Ilya too!

I love having the profile button at the top, I currently find not having that a bit disorientating
This is extremely cool, you should all be very proud of yourselves
Alexander Berger answered pretty much this exact question on a old 80k episode
I don’t know anyone there but the 30M figure came from their website https://macroscopic.org/grants
