comment rather than answer cuz its a different discussion: in some cases a high GPA is a red flag cuz it means a person could've taken harder classes and didn't[1]. In the US, high schools adjust for this by making an A in an AP worth 5 out of 4, but i haven't caught wind of solutions like that in college.
it appears the author has retracted it? or some other notion of it being no longer readable. I'm curious for their take on why they did that.

i'm confused about tithing. I yearn for the diamond emoji from GWWC, and I'm not comfortable enough to do it since I took like a 50% pay cut to do AI safety nonprofit stuff. Seems weird to make such a financial commitment, which implicates my future wife, who I have presumably not met yet, especially when I'm scraping by without too many savings per paycheck.
Is there a sense in which I already am diamond emoji eligible, because I'm "donating 50% of my income" in the sense of opportunity cost? 50 is, famously, greater than 10.
Some people think FTX not collapsing would've been on net worse for EA than FTX collapsing, cuz not collapsing would've led to such a grifter problem. You can find people who saw early signs of people just getting into it cuz of the free flow of money.
I'm pretty prepared to be worried about this, if we get another couple foundations out of Anthropic alums it could be FTX all over again (without the gambling, which makes it better. But with the AI race accelerant, which makes it worse).
Even fully autonomous weapons (those that take humans out of the loop entirely and automate selecting and engaging targets) may prove critical for our national defense. But today, frontier AI systems are simply not reliable enough to power fully autonomous weapons.
weird that one of their "red lines" is a moral line in the sand based on convictions in political philosophy, while the other one is a "not wrong but early" thing about reliability. I'm reading this as Dario pretty clearly saying that when AIs are reliable enough to have human-out-of-the-loop killchains, Anthropic will be happy to power it.
And I'm worried this is a nuance that not all Anthropic employees or https://notdivided.org/ signers are noticing and disagree with.
i'm being the change i want to see in the world by not listing employers/collaborators/customers/credentials in my EAG introduction channel slack post, and instead listing the things I'm responsible for.

plus there's enough grade inflation out there that isn't normalized across institutions or even within institutions.
huh. I recalled "xyz ways to become unstoppably agentic", an old EA forum post, that me and some friends liked quite a lot.
