  in reply to: Bella’s comment on: Videos on the world’s most press­ing prob­lems, by 80,000 Hours

  I think we still see really good engagement with the videos themselves. The average view duration for the AI video is currently 58.7% of the video, and 25% of viewers watched the whole video

  This average percentage relates to organic traffic only, right? The paid traffic APV must look much lower, something like 5%?

  No, for now, we aren’t committing to any specific type of niche!

  Thumbs up to this summary. My only nitpick is that I wouldn’t call Mana “virtual currency” since it could be confused with cryptocurrency, while it’s mere internet points.

  There is a single winner so far, and it will be announced with the corresponding video release. The contest is still open, though!

  Edit: another person claimed a bonus prize, too.

  Easy fix: let the user pick a discounted sum of future income. It could also be calculated using some average over past daily income if that’s available to see.

  on: I’m in­ter­view­ing Jan Leike, co-lead of OpenAI’s new Su­per­al­ign­ment pro­ject. What should I ask him?

  There’s a maybe naive way of seeing their plan that leads to this objection:
  
  ”Once we have AIs that are human-level AI alignment researchers, it’s already too late. That’s already very powerful and goal-directed general AI, and we’ll be screwed soon after we develop it, either because it’s dangerous in itself or because it zips past that capability level fast since it’s an AI researcher, after all.”
  
  What do you make of it?

  No, but we’ll need more than one voice actor for some videos. We’ll consider you for those occasions if you send us your portfolio.
