If you are willing to share, can you say more about what got you into this line of investigation, and what you were hoping to get out of it?
Burnt out after almost an year of focusing on alignment research. I wanted to take a break from alignment-ey stuff and also desired to systematically fix the root causes behind the fact that I hit what I considered burn-out.
I don’t feel like I have many issues/baggage/trauma
I felt similar when I began this, and my motivation was not to ‘fix issues’ in myself but more “hey I have explicitly decided to take a break and have fun and TYCS seems interesting let’s experiment with it for a while, I can afford to do so”.
