Frequent arguments about alignment

📅 2021

📖 Description

Here, I'll review some arguments that frequently come up in discussions about alignment research, involving one person skeptical of the endeavor (called Skeptic) and one person advocating to do more of it (called Advocate). I mostly endorse the views of the Advocate, but the Skeptic isn't a strawman and makes some decent points. The dialog is mostly based on conversations I've had with people who work on machine learning but don't specialize in safety and alignment.
