I personally believe that this post is very important for claims between Shard Theory vs Sharp Left Turn. I often find that other perspectives on the deeper problems in AI alignment are expressed and I believe this to be a lot more nuanced take compared to Quentin Pope’s essay on the Sharp Left Turn as well as the MIRI conception of evolution.
This is a field of study and we don’t know what is going on, the truth is somewhere in between and acknowledging anything else is not being epistemically humble.
