Anthropic and the Department of War are... at war. But who can we trust to govern superintelligent AI? The government, or the market? Two people who strongly disagree on this are Dean W. Ball (ex senior advisor to Trump) and Daniel Kokotajlo (ex OpenAI). So I asked them to debate it! But this goes way beyond a simple debate. They also had to red-team their own arguments and steelman each other. It's a new format called an ANTI-debate (more info below). Lmk what you think! 00:00 - Intro 03:42 - Daniel’s Story 04:34 - Dean’s Story 06:52 - Opening Statements 19:54 - Rebuttals 25:45 - Free Debate 36:32 - Steelmanning 45:40 - Red-teaming 51:38 - Synthesis 1:17:30 - Closing Statements

Our news industry is broken. Instead of optimizing for truth, it optimizes for outrage. And it's no one in particular's fault! It's the nature of the game itself. A classic Moloch trap. I explore this in my new film "The Media Wars" now available on Twitter in full: 👇

What if we're all PARTIALLY right... about AI? Skeptics, e/acc, safetyists, ethicists, china-hawks... the AI debate has become a hot mess. So I tried to act it out. Watch the results below. If I butchered your accent, I do not apologize. This was not an easy film to make.

So the Trump admin have bowed to the factory farming lobby and put a nightmare piece of language into the new Farm Bill, that will DECIMATE farm animal welfare laws, and states’ rights. We have to stop this. It’s the most anti-MAHA thing ever 👇 Cc Robert F. Kennedy Jr
