My comment was a reply to a comment on ITT. I made it in the hope someone would be up for the bet. I didn’t say I disagree with the OP’s claims on alignment; I said I don’t think they’d be able to pass an ITT. I didn’t want to talk about specifics of what the OP doesn’t seem to understand about Yudkowsky’s views, as the OP could then reread some of what Yudkowsky’s written more carefully, and potentially make it harder for me to distinguish them in an ITT.
I’m sorry if it seemed disparaging.
The comment explained what I disagree with in the post: the claim that the OP would be good at passing an ITT. It wasn’t intended as being negative about the OP, as, indeed, I think 20 people are on the right order of magnitude of the amount of people who’d be substantially better at it, which is the bar of being in the top 0.00000025% of Earth population at this specific thing. (I wouldn’t claim I’d pass that bar.)
If people don’t want to do any sort of betting, I’d be up for a dialogue on what I think Yudkowsky thinks that would contradict some of what’s written in the post, but I don’t want to spend >0.5h on a comment no one will read
