Thank you for mentioning us. In fact, the list of candidate instincts got longer. It isn’t in a presentable form yet, but please message me if you want to talk about it.
The list is more theoretical, and I want to prove that this is not just theoretical speculation by operationalizing it. jpyykko is already working on something more on the symbolic level.
Rohin Shaw recommended that I find people to work with me on alignment, and I teamed up with two LWers. We just started work on a project to simulate instinct-cued learning in a toy-world. I think this project fits research point 15.2.1.2, and I wonder now how to apply for funding—we would probably need it if we want to simulate with somewhat larger NNs.
I’m also interested to se the list of candidate instincts.
Regarding funding, how much money do you need? Just order of magnitude. There lots of diffrent grants and where you want to appy depends on the size of your budget.
Small models can be trained on the developer machines, but to speed things up and to be able to run bigger nets we could use AWS GPU spot instances which cost 1$/hour. In my company with relatively small models we pay >1000$/month. We will probably reach that unless we are really successful.
