I don’t think so (?)
There are physical things that make me have more nightmares, like being too hot, or needing to pee
Sounds like I might be missing something obvious?

Thanks for sharing <3
My main concern about trying SSRIs is that they’ll make me stop noticing certain things that I care about, things that currently manifest as anxiety or so.
Opinions?
As AIs become more capable, we may at least want the option of discussing them out of their earshot.
If I’d want to discuss something outside of an AI’s earshot, I’d use something like Signal, or something that would keep out a human too.
AIs sometimes have internet access, and robots.txt won’t keep them out.
I don’t think having this info in their training set is a big difference (but maybe I don’t see the problem you’re pointing out, so this isn’t confident).
Scaling matters, but it’s not all that matters.
For example, RLHF
@habryka , Would you reply to this comment if there’s an opportunity to donate to either? Me and another person are interested, and others could follow this comment too if they wanted to
(only if it’s easy for you, I don’t want to add an annoying task to your plate)
+1, you convinced me.
I worry this will distract from risks like “making an AI that is smart enough to learn how to hack computers from scratch”, but I don’t buy the general “don’t distract with true things” argument.
“I don’t think that there is more that 1% that support direct violence against non-terrorists for its own sake”: This seems definitely wrong to me, if you also count Israelies who consider everyone in Gaza as potential terrorists or something like that.
If you offer Israelies:
Button 1: Kill all of Hamas
Button 2: Kill all of Gaza
Then definitely more than 1% will choose Button 2
I haven’t heard of anything like that (but not sure if I would).
Note there are also problems in trying to set up a government using force, in setting up a police force there if they’re not interested in it, in building an education system (which is currently, afaik, very anti Israel and wouldn’t accept Israel’s opinions on changes, I think) ((not that I’m excited about Israel’s internal education system either)).
I do think Israel provides water, electricity, internet, equipment, medical equipment (subsidized? free? i’m not sure of all this anyway) to Gaza. I don’t know if you count that is something like “building a stockpile of equipment for providing clean drinking water to residents of occupied territory”.
I don’t claim the current solution is good, I’m just pointing out some problems with what I think you’re suggesting (and I’m not judging whether those problems are bigger or smaller).
What do you mean by “building capacity” in this context? (maybe my English isn’t good enough, I didn’t understand your question)
I was a software developer in the Israeli military (not a data scientist), and I was part of a course constantly trains software developers for various units to use.
The big picture is that the military is a huge organization, and there is a ton of room for software to improve everything. I can’t talk about specific uses (just like I can’t describe our tanks or whatever, sorry if that’s what you’re asking, and sorry I’m not giving the full picture), but even things like logistics or servers or healthcare have big teams working on them.
Also remember the military started a long time ago, when there weren’t good off-the-shelf solutions for everything, and imagine how big are the companies that make many of the products that you (or orgs) use.
There are also many Israelies that don’t consider Plaestinians to be humans worth protecting, but rather as evil beings / outgroup / whatever you’d call that.
Also (with much less confidence), I do think many Palastinians want to kill Israelies because of things that I’d consider brainwashing.
Hard question—what to do about a huge population that’s been brainwashed like that (if my estimation here is correct), or how might a peaceful resolution look?
Not a question, but seems relevant for people who read this post:
Meni Rosenfeld, one of the early LessWrong Israel members, has enlisted:

Any ideas on how much to read this as “Sam’s actual opinions” vs “Sam trying to say things that will satisfy the maximum amount of people”?
(do we have priors on his writings? do we have information about him absolutely not meaning one or more of the things here?)
Hey Kaj :)
The part-hiding-complexity here seems to me like “how exactly do you take a-simulation/prediction-of-a-person and get from it the-preferences-of-the-person”.
For example, would you simulate a negotiation with the human and how the negotiation would result? Would you simulate asking the human and then do whatever the human answers? (there were a few suggestions in the post, I don’t know if you endorse a specific one or if you even think this question is important)
Because (I assume) once OpenAI[1] say “trust our models”, that’s the point when it would be useful to publish our breaks.
Breaks that weren’t published yet, so that OpenAI couldn’t patch them yet.
[unconfident; I can see counterarguments too]
- ^
Or maybe when the regulators or experts or the public opinion say “this model is trustworthy, don’t worry”
- ^
I’m confused: Wouldn’t we prefer to keep such findings private? (at least, keep them until OpenAI will say something like “this model is reliable/safe”?)
My guess: You’d reply that finding good talent is worth it?
Thanks! I’m excited to go over the things I never heard of
So far,
Elevenlabs app: great, obviously
Bolt: I didn’t like it
I asked it to create a React Native app that prints my GPS coordinates to the screen (as a POC), it couldn’t do it. I also asked for a podcast app (someone must and no one else will..), it did less well than Replit (though Replit used web). Anyway my main use case would be mobile apps (I don’t have a reasonable solution for that yet) (btw I hardly have mobile development experience, so this is an extra interesting use case for me).
It sounds like maybe you’re missing templates to start from? I do think Bolt’s templates have something cool about them, but I don’t think
Warp: I already use the free version and I like it very much. Great for things like “stop this docker container and also remove the volume”
Speech to text: I use ChatGPT voice. My use case is “I’m riding my bike and I want to use the time to write a document”, so we chat about it back and forth
Q:
5. How do you “Use o1-mini for more complex changes across the codebase”? (what tool knows your code and can query o1 about it?)
5.1. OMG, Is that what Cursor Composer is? I have got to try that
