What is the suffering of a few in the face of Science? Pain is all relative, as is eternity. We’ve done far worse. I’m sure we have.
(I’m not a huge fan of SCP in general, but I like a few stories with the “infohazard” tag, and I’m amused by how LW-ish those can get.)
At what level of formalization does this kind of ‘incremental progress’ start to count? I ask because your philosophical essays on reductionism, consciousness and zombies is something that seems to be incremental progress towards that end (but which I certainly wouldn’t consider a mistake to publish or a net risk).
Eliezer could argue that the incremental progress towards stopping the risk outweighs the danger, same as with the general FAI/uFAI secrecy debate.

I think EY vastly overrates security through obscurity. Szilard keeping results about graphite and neutrons secret happened before the Internet; now there’s this thing called the Streisand effect.

I can’t find the quote on that page. Is it from somewhere else (or an earlier version) or am I missing something?
White text. (Apparently there’s a few more hidden features in the entry, but I only found this one.)
I, um, still can’t find it. This white text is on the page you linked to, yes? About the videos that are probably soultraps?
EDIT: Nevermind, got it.
Ah, thanks.
