A Narrow Path is a newly written plan for allowing humanity to survive the path to superintelligence. Like the plan or hate the plan, this at least is indeed a plan, that tries to lay out a path that might work.
I just submitted an essay yesterday to the Cosmos essay contest entitled, “A path to Human Autonomy”. There are enough parallels with ‘A Narrow Path’ that I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw this. At least others are thinking along the same lines I am!
Of course, there are also differences. My essay emphasizes some different points, such as the troubling intersection of self-replicating weapons and AI. A different understanding of the threat landscape leads to different ideas of how to avoid those threats.
