Yes, problems, yes, people are being really stupid, yes, inner alignment and all of it’s cousins are really hard to solve. We’re generally a bit fucked, I agree. The brickwall is so high we can’t see the edge and we have to bash out each brick one at a time and it is hard, really hard.
I get it people, and yet we’ve got a shot, don’t we? The probability distribution of all potential futures is being dragged towards better futures because of the work you put in and I’m very grateful for that.
