The Nonlinear Library: EA Forum
Education
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Among the A.I. Doomsayers - The New Yorker, published by AgustÃn Covarrubias on March 12, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum.The New Yorker just realized a feature article on AI Safety, rationalism, and effective altruism, and⦠it's surprisingly good? It seems honest, balanced, and even funny. It doesn't take a position about AI Safety, but IMO it paints it in a good way.Paul Crowley (mentioned in the article) did have some criticism, and put up a response in a post. Most of his concerns seem to be with how the article takes a focus on the people interviewed, rather than the ideas being discussed.Thanks for listening.
