I think I'm at the edge of my ability with AI as I'm noticing I'm trying to argue against the usefulness of the concepts rather than the concepts themselves. At the very least I'm not smart enough to casually read these sites (lesswrong, AI alignment) at this time. I remember feeling like this (brain CPUs pegged at 100%) trying to slog through HPMOR the first time too in fairness, it's just too many concepts to take in in one sitting. I'll get there eventually if I keep at it but not on my first read. I'll consider my opinions on AI safety void due to lack of knowledge for now, always try to jump over the first stage of competence. I'll start with the Wikipedia page for AI alignment, haha. Thank you for your responses in any case, I'll dig into this further!
