Altman thinks midterm, Yudkowsky longterm

the former deals in business, the latter in theory

while basically nobody thinks that AI wont have a huge impact on the economy (i.e. everyone agreeing with Altman), Yudkowsky has yet to be proven wrong in his statement that ours is the time of failed AI alignemnt. I have yet to discover a practical solution the alignment problem and I more and more believe that he may be right, which would pretty terrible for all of us

Right. Even if the odds are one in a hundred that Yudkowsky is right rather than the 99 out of a hundred he might assign himself, we should be paying attention to what he is saying.
