Yudkowsky explicitly doesn’t believe in rapid technical progress. He’s talked about the fact that he believes in the Great Stagnation (slowdown in science/tech/economic progress) which is possibly a good thing since it may retard the creation of AGI, giving people a better shot to work on friendliness first.

Links? What is “rapid”? Did he look at his phone recently?
The Great Stagnation is phenomenon on the time scale of decades. How about the time scale of centuries?

Yes, he believes in the Great Stagnation. That does not imply he doesn’t believe in rapid technological progress. Again, what is “rapid”?
