Over Expected Volume

Every two weeks we surprise Chana with a new guest from the EA/rationalist-sphere and sometimes even the buttoned-up AI Safet– ahem– AI Security field. Chana tells us how to live and think; Matt does all the work; occasionally a joke gets cracked; complaining is unceasing.

Conversational Blood Types

Matt wants to find out why people like him and it turns out that Chana is even more interested in that question. On the way, we coin some new terminology and learn about triangles. We then talk around Amanda Askell’s Paladin, Pacifist, Soldier, Scout post like we haven’t read it, because we didn’t.  LINKS The 30-60-90 Triangle: https://mathworld.wolfram.com/30-60-90Triangle.html Secular academy in Rome where you must speak Latin: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accademia_Vivarium_Novum [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accademia_Vivarium_Novum] Regis High School  in New York: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regis_High_School_(New_York_City) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regis_High_School_(New_York_City)] Amanda’s blog we talked around: https://askellio.substack.com/p/paladin-pacifist-soldier-scout [https://askellio.substack.com/p/paladin-pacifist-soldier-scout] As always, you can email in questions and comments at mattandchana@gmail.com

The Singularity Is Far Mode w/ Peter Barnett

Matt has a lousy AI & economics theory that goes nowhere, but we elegantly pivot to talking about human zoos, early internet scholarship, babies taking their first baths, and how important it is that we “take all the galaxies and do all the stuff.” Also, should we trade with ants? Apologies for the audio (again) – Matt will do his pre-checks in the future to make sure the individual mics are working.
