I did not have this mindset right away. When I was new to AI Safety I though it would require much more experience before I was qualified to question the consensus, because that is the normal situation, in all the old sciences. I knew AI Safety was young, but I did not understand the implications at first. I needed someone to prompt me to get started.
Because I’ve run various events and co-founded AI Safety Support, I’ve talked to loooots of AI Safety newbies. Most people are too causes when it comes to believing themselves and too ready to follow authorities. It’s usually only takes a short conversation pointing out how incredibly young AI Safety is, and what that means, but many people do need this one push.
No by default.
