I'm probably making all kinds of Bayesian reasoning errors by coming this conclusion, but I'm beginning to think Eliezer's true calling is writing SF.

For a story of Elizier's that starts slow and finishes strong, check out "That Alien Message", a disturbing and inspiring parable about the true meaning of superintelligence: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=980876 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=980876
