Interlude: Agents as Automobiles

📖 Description

I ended up writing a long rant about agency in my review of Joe Carlsmith's report on x-risk from power-seeking AI. I've polished the rant a bit and posted it into this sequence. The central analogy between APS-AI and self-propelled machines ("Auto-mobiles") is a fun one, and I suspect the analogy runs much deeper than I've explored so far.
