Ah okay, thanks. I wasn’t aware of the Alignment Forum, I’ll check it out.
I don’t disagree that informal forums are valuable. I take Jacque Ellul’s belief in Technological Society that science firms held by monopolies tend to have their growth stunted for exactly the reasons you pointed out.
I think it’s more that places like LessWrong are susceptible to having the narrative around them warped (referencing the article about Scott Alexander). Though this is slightly off-topic now.
Lastly, I am interested in AI; I’m just feeling around for what the best way to get into it is. So thanks.
