alex_zag_al comments on Further discussion of CFAR’s focus on AI safety, and the good things folks wanted from “cause neutrality”

Several of these had the form “I, too, think that AI safety is incredibly important — and that is why I think CFAR should remain cause-neutral, so it can bring in more varied participants who might be made wary by an explicit focus on AI.”

I don’t think that AI safety is important, which I guess makes me one of the “more varied participants made wary by an explicit focus on AI.” Happy you’re being explicit about your goals but I don’t like them.
