1: Upvoted.
2: I would like to see more.
3: The narrative made me question several answers that I had at first and rewrite my response a few times.
4: The middle contains a long chain of what feels like rationalist applause lights. Upon further review, (further FURTHER review perhaps? I’m already rewriting this for brevity and I’m STILL rethinking?) this might be why I spent so much time thinking about it.
5: The sentences that appeared to put me into such a thought provoking loops were specifically: ‘Agents will seek to clarify their utility functions.’ and “Did you ever even notice your anthropomorphism, or were you too busy using that brush to paint your enemies with?”
But it certainly worked well as something for me to read in the mood that I was in right now.
