There is the existence proof of gold, silver, platinum, etc. But people have mostly convinced me already that 2 OOM are not going to be enough to have much of an effect.
I think you understand my argument correctly. :-) You argued that AI safety will not differentially speed up compared to AI capabilities because it will slow down at the same rate. Maybe not literally the same rate but the same rate in expectation. But that still seems unlikely to me since I can think of reasons why it would slow down less but can’t think of reasons why it would slow down more.
Yes, precious metals are used as stores of value, however they are also used in electronics and in jewelry (which functions as a way to signal wealth). So I don’t consider them counterexamples.
It’s fair for you to believe that, but you’re probably using a lot of weak evidence so it’s hard to communicate that evidence to me. I’m just saying that what you did share wasn’t sufficient to shift my opinion.
Oh sorry, I didn’t see your comment.
