I’ve just binge-read the entire sequence and thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks a lot for writing! I really like the framework of three anchors—thought experiments, humans, and empirical ML—and emphasising the strength and limitations of each and the need for all 3. Most discourse I’ve seen tends to strongly favour just one anchor, but ‘all are worth paying attention to, none should be totalising’ seems obviously true
