I would suggest you e-mail your blueprint to a few of the posters here with the understanding they keep it to themselves. If even one long-term poster says “I’ve read Friedenbach’s arguments and while they are confidential, I now agree that his estimate of the time to AI is actually pretty good,” then I think your argument is starting to become persuasive.

Sorry I didn’t mean to come off so abrasively either. I was just being unduly snarky. The internet is not good for conveying emotional state :\
