Between the wind advisories and New York bracing for impact, it's looking like hurricane season came early this year. This week, Nathan recounts his latest basketball performance and sympathizes with Punxsutawney Phil. With a new promotion in the armed services, Ryan takes on new responsibilities planning events and whatnot. He's got a purpose, but he doesn't know what it is. Let's just hope he doesn't get put on the Secret Service, because that might end up being more of a demotion.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Discussion with Nate Soares on a key alignment difficulty, published by HoldenKarnofsky on March 13, 2023 on The AI Alignment Forum. In late 2022, Nate Soares gave some feedback on my Cold Takes series on AI risk (shared as drafts at that point), stating that I hadn't discussed what he sees as one of the key difficulties of AI alignment. I wanted to understand the difficulty he was pointing to, so the two of us had an extended Slack exchange, and I then wrote up a summary of the exchange that we iterated on until we were both reasonably happy with its characterization of the difficulty and our disagreement.1 My short summary is: Nate thinks there are deep reasons that training an AI to do needle-moving scientific research (including alignment) would be dangerous. The overwhelmingly likely result of such a training attempt (by default, i.e., in the absence of specific countermeasures that there are currently few ideas for) would be the AI taking on a dangerous degree of convergent instrumental subgoals while not internalizing important safety/corrigibility properties enough. I think this is possible, but much less likely than Nate thinks under at least some imaginable training processes. I didn't end up agreeing that this difficulty is as important as Nate thinks it is, although I did update my views some (more on that below). My guess is that this is one of the two biggest disagreements I have with Nate's and Eliezer's views (the other one being the likelihood of a sharp left turn that leads to a massive capabilities gap between AI systems and their supervisors.2) Below is my summary of: Some key premises we agree on. What we disagree about, at a high level. A hypothetical training process we discussed in order to get more clear and mechanistic about Nate's views. Some brief discussion of possible cruxes; what kind of reasoning Nate is using to arrive at his relatively high (~85%) level of confidence on this point; and future observations that might update one of us toward the other's views. MIRI might later put out more detailed notes on this exchange, drawing on all of our discussions over Slack and comment threads in Google docs. Nate has reviewed this post in full. I'm grateful for his help with it. Some starting points of agreement Nate on this section: “Seems broadly right to me!” An AI is dangerous if: It's powerful (like, it has the ability to disempower humans if it's "aiming" at that) It aims (perhaps as a side effect of aiming at something else) at CIS (convergent instrumental subgoals) such as "Preserve option value," "Gain control of resources that can be used for lots of things," "Avoid being turned off," and such. (Note that this is a weaker condition than "maximizes utility according to some relatively simple utility function of states of the world") It does not reliably avoid POUDA (pretty obviously unintended/dangerous actions) such as "Design and deploy a bioweapon." "Reliably" just means like "In situations it will actually be in" (which will likely be different from training, but I'm not trying to talk about "all possible situations"). Avoiding POUDA is kind of a low bar in some sense. Avoiding POUDA doesn't necessarily require fully/perfectly internalizing some "corrigibility core" (such that the AI would always let us turn it off even in arbitrarily exotic situations that challenge the very meaning of "let us turn it off"), and it even more so doesn't require anything like CEV. It just means that stuff where Holden would be like "Whoa whoa, that is OBVIOUSLY unintended/dangerous/bad" is stuff that an AI would not do. That said, POUDA is not something that Holden is able to articulate cleanly and simply. There are lots of actions that might be POUDA in one situation and not in another (e.g., developing a chemical that's both poisonous and useful...

It's that time of the year again! What are we marching for this year? Re-releasing this episode from a few years ago because, well… we are so tired of telling people to stop telling us “everyday is women's day” when clearly it's not, especially not in Nepal! Just look at how the Nepali state treats women - Nepali women are unequal by law because of the discriminatory citizenship provision in the constitution, the judiciary mostly takes side of male perpetrators in cases of sexual violence against women, and Nepali women's mobility for better job opportunities abroad is severely restricted. So here's our “tyaaau tyaaau” once again reminding everyone that giving women's day discounts and a public holiday on March 8th will not make the world a better place for us womaniyas! Hope you enjoy this episode!

The first race of the 2023 F1 season is here and so are Henry and Levy with their terrible opinions. We also get into Checo suing Pinkbike, and Levy shares his story about that one time he touched Jenson Button. 

In this week's Chubstep Steed and Jrad give a quick butter lesson before getting to another Chubstep on YouTube that no longer exists, the advantages of red hair, Steed's trip to Florida and his grandma's near death experience, a paraglider and fisherman's feud, calling OnStar at an auto show, Ash Wednesday shenanigans, a new segment ‘Cold Takes' where the guys interpret what a pop culture heading means, Sam Brinton stealing designer clothes in ‘Tanzania News', and a debate on how men use their zipper and top button in the bathroom.

Researcher Sangita Thebe Limbu joins Boju Bajai to talk about the importance of creating critical spaces in the public sphere that can challenge the dominant narratives and discourses shaping people's minds and op-ed pages around issues of inclusion, reservation, and that Nepal is “४ जात ३६ वर्णको साझा happy फूलबारी।” Sangita Thebe Limbu is a PhD candidate at University College London (UCL). She holds an MSc in Social Anthropology from the University of Oxford, and another MSc in Gender, Development and Globalization from the London School of Economics and Political Science.

As news stories of rape-accused Sandeep Lamichhane taking wickets take over our timelines, the erasure of the legal proceedings against him has begun. And, what is clear is that for the Cricket Association of Nepal, wickets come before women. Here is our unplanned and unscheduled cold takes on CAN's continuing attempts to reinstate Lamichhane's place in the national team and his public reputation, while he is charged with the rape of a minor, and while the final verdict on the case is still pending.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: How seriously should we take the hypothesis that LW is just wrong on how AI will impact the 21st century?, published by Noosphere89 on February 16, 2023 on LessWrong. This question is inspired by 1a3orn's comment on how there are troubling signs of epistemic issues in LW's Alignment field. I'll quote the comment here to tell you what I mean: I think that the above is also a good explanation for why many ML engineers working on AI or AGI don't see any particular reason to engage with or address arguments about high p(doom). When from a distance one views a field that: Has longstanding disagreements about basic matters Has theories -- but many of the theories have not resulted in really any concrete predictions that differentiate from standard expectations, despite efforts to do so. Will continue to exist regardless of how well you criticize any one part of it. There's basically little reason to engage with it. These are all also evidence that there's something epistemically off with what is going on in the field. Maybe this evidence is wrong! But I do think that it is evidence, and not-weak evidence, and it's very reasonable for a ML engineer to not deeply engage with arguments because of it. So I want to ask a question: How seriously should we take the hypothesis that LW is totally wrong on AI? Specifically, this splits into several subquestions: What's the chance that AI doesn't have that much of an impact on the world by 2100? What's the chance that we do have massive impacts, but alignment is so easy that standard ML techniques work? How well does the epistemic process on LW work? Are there any changes you would make to LW's epistemic processes? I welcome all answers, and I especially welcome any critics of LW/negative answers to at least answer one of the questions I have. Edit: For people that don't have a specific scenario in mind, I'll ask a specific question. It doesn't have to be answered, but any answers on this question are appreciated, especially from critics of the "AI is significant" idea. 1a. What probability will the Explosion or Collapse scenario from Cold Takes happen by 2100? Link to the scenarios below: Thanks for listening.

The newest episode of 2023 is here! Kicking off the new year with our conversation with Mahima Vashisht, the very talented and funny womaniya behind ‘Womaning in India' newsletter. We talk about everything from subtle sexism, gender blindspots, raja betas, and everything in between. Mahima's weekly newsletter weaves in deeply personal and shockingly candid stories from Indian households and is equal parts hilarious and insightful. She shares real stories of real women of India to highlight gender bias blind spots in everyday life - at home, at the workplace, in public spaces, and even in women's own self-image. Womaning in India won the 2022 Women's Web digital creators award for "Writing with Social Impact", and has been a featured publication on the global platform, Substack. Mahima is a former civil servant with the Government of India and currently works as a climate change expert with UNICEF. #TalentKiDukaan Please check out Mahima Vashisht's newsletter Womaning in India https://womaning.substack.com/ We highly recommend reading The Raja Beta Syndrome by Mahima Vashisht https://womaning.substack.com/p/the-raja-beta-syndrome Follow Mahima on Twitter @mahimavashisht https://twitter.com/mahimavashisht?lang=en And listen to The Womaning in India podcast https://open.spotify.com/show/07ybD3OdCa1AGUO4Elh5H9 Boju Bajai regularly works with reporters and researchers to bring compelling audio stories that centre and amplify women's experiences.

This time we talk about bros, who run everything from influential social media platforms to newsrooms and spiritual empires and their highly problematic views on gender among many things.

Abortion is legal in Nepal, but it is still criminalised. What does this mean for reproductive justice and what impact does it have on the reproductive health of women? Why are women still being driven to seek unsafe abortions? Why does our society still view abortion as something shameful and how does that affect the health and mental wellbeing of women? Reporter Srijana Khadka speaks to healthcare workers from Ramechhap and Syangja about the degree of safety and level of access of abortion services available to women. She also interviews the Executive Director of FWLD and leading advocate Sabin Shrestha who has been working in the area of legalisation and decriminalisation of abortion. This is the second part of our series on abortion rights in Nepal. We discuss about the cultural attitudes surrounding abortion in our homes, families and hospitals, and what that means for young Nepali women when they seek such services. And how does American politics around abortion rights actually could have an impact down the line in countries like Nepal.

On today's Breitbart News Daily podcast, we report the latest details on the mass murder rampage at the Texas elementary school in Uvalde. What could possibly explain law enforcement failing to shut down the shooter for some 60 to 90 minutes? We discuss. Then, we get into the utter failure of our political and media class as they suggest any solutions that a) would prevent something like this from happening again, and b) have a realistic chance of actually becoming law. Sad, yet entirely predictable. I report the worst hot takes from the likes of former Pres. Barack Obama and Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) to Democrats out in California. Of course, we discuss Robert "Beto" O'Rourke's decision to crash the press conference yesterday held by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin. Then, a quick run down of the rest of the news, from soaring gas prices, to Joe Biden's baby formula disgrace, to a new trans doll for little girls put out by Mattel. We have two guests today. First, is Jonathan Gilliam, a former Navy SEAL and FBI agent, who fills in on the live SiriusXM show from time to time. He wrote a book called "Sheep No More: The Art of Awareness and Attack Survival." Jonathan has given these horrific mass shooting incidents a lot of thought over the years and shares some of his analysis on this particular incident before making recommendations for our personal lives. Then, we speak to Mike Benz, a new guest to the podcast and the founder of Foundation for Freedom Online (FFO). He is the man behind Breitbart News' viral post on Bill Gates using dark money mechanisms to fund anti-Elon Musk efforts.
