I think this is what most mech interp researchers more or less think. Though I definitely expect many researchers would disagree with individual points, nor does it fairly weigh all views and aspects (it’s very biased towards “people I talk to”). (Also this is in no way an Apollo / Apollo interp team statement, just my personal view.)
Who is “we”? Is it:
only you and your team?
the entire Apollo Research org?
the majority of mechinterp researchers worldwide?
some other group/category of people?
Also, this definitely deserves to be made into a high-level post, if you end up finding the time/energy/interest in making one.
Thanks for the comment!
