Powerful AI will change our institutions. Yet most of our attention is on aligning or regulating AI, while treating our institutions as fixed.
Introducing Pax Machina: a new publication about the institutions we need for powerful AI.
It is edited by @MaxKronerDale, @sebkrier, @NoemiDreksler, @LiamPatell, @chelcott9, @synchroaphasia, @ryan_t_lowe, @edelwax, and @klingefjord.
The editorial board consists of Peter Railton, @sethlazar, @saffronhuang, @AmmannNora, @xuanalogue, @IasonGabriel, @hamandcheese, and @deanwball.
Our goal is to seed rigorous debate about what a world of humans and powerful AI could and should look like.
We will publish proposals for new institutions, counterproposals, well-justified design principles, and analyses that change how a class of institutions should be designed.
@lunarcycling@evanbuhler I bet you are. And I also heard you felt anxiety at how well things are going.
So my question to you is what can you enjoy about having the anxiety?
Hint: feeling overwhelmed is the strategy to avoid having to feel the anxiety itself. The way through is to welcome the anxiety.
@evanbuhler@lunarcycling Thanks for the tap. I’ll take this as an opportunity to offer you a tip.
Here’s an experiment for you, Nora:
Without needing to do this right, what pleasure can you find in that anxiety?
@Castellani2014 Yup, joy and grief are running mates.
I’m glad you let sports move through you so openly.
It’s what makes your content so authentic and appealing.
Go blue!
@danielbrottman Thanks Daniel.
I really enjoyed reading your current thread of tweets this morning. I can see how much the work is working through you.
@jonnym1ller@AtlasForgeAI Curious how you hold this automation in respect to much of the joys of being a parent is the skill development of attunement and learning to nurture in the right ways that comes with it
@aibytekat This is so un-useful.
It reads: here are some frameworks for why you shouldn’t worry about it.
But in the urgency is where you get the oporuntity to learn all about yourself
@TylerAlterman@Actualwebutante Was working on an idea like this for desertified land in west Africa. We called in Greening Man. Nuts to see it actualizing in the field
Judgements are the children of shame -
You can’t be in unconditional love with someone else while you’re in judgement of them.
Same applies for yourself
Flow is what happens when we meet the world as it is
Boundaries are what happens when we need to protect ourselves from the flow
Overwhelm is what happens when we miss our boundaries
