If you put work into laying out the structure of the arguments and information involved, as much as in the Superintelligence reading group, then this will be a highly valuable group indeed. Having read the entire blog pots of EY, I would reread the book if this were of or near that quality.
Added: I will be recommending this reading group to my first-time reader friends.
It depends on what time allows, as this is a volunteer effort (unlike the Superintelligence group, where Kajita’s time is being paid for by MIRI, I believe). So although the goal is the same, it may require a little bit of crowd sourcing to end up at the same level of quality. I plan to have at the very least one short paragraph providing an unbiased summary of each essay at the time of posting. If time allows I’ll try to distill and organize the entire sequence down to an argument outline structure as well. If not, I’ll be accepting contributions to update into the main post.
