Went through all the archives of publications of high IQ societies
Went though a significant fraction of the publications of the forecasting community and interviewed 4 superforecasters
Skimmed and spot checked knowledge in multiple knowledge representation textbooks which gave a much better overview of historical practical AI efforts
Went through most of the supporting research for micronutrient intake guidelines (mealsquares)
Reviewed the (fairly sparse) megascale project literature
Reading the bitcoin whitepaper turned out to be more comprehensive than 99+% of people (it’s 9 pages)
Recursively applying search expertise to itself was fun and worthwhile
Was this project worthwhile? Would you recommend it to others? If yes, what were the key takeaways? Considering doing this myself.
I didn’t find much of interest. Adverse selection on members of these orgs is my guess.
