Huge response to this tweet. Seems like people really want to use the 80,000 hours they have in their careers to do meaningful impactful work. If only a service existed to help them do this.

Your career is not only a major driver of your happiness — it’s probably also your biggest opportunity to have a positive impact on the world.

what are some of the most psychoactive tweets you've seen or bookmarked? tweets that basically altered your brain function/chemistry the moment you read them.

OpenAI's operator, from the sound of it, barely works when it comes to bunch of things. Luckily, as we all know, it's really hard to go from 'barely works' to 'works' to 'superhuman' in AI, especially once you have the basic set up that gets you to 'barely works'.

Today we launched a new product called ChatGPT Agent. Agent represents a new level of capability for AI systems and can accomplish some remarkable, complex tasks for you using its own computer. It combines the spirit of Deep Research and Operator, but is more powerful than that.

okay but seriously why doesn't this video game exist yet
@binarybits I've been waiting for someone to make another web game like Universal Paperclips that lets you play through various AI takeoff scenarios. a playable version of ai-2027, or a bearish business management sim where you're saving the furniture at a lab as a bubble pops.

Sometimes I talk to students or professionals who are excited about technical AI safety with a related skillset, but don't know where to start. I typically throw 1000 links at them in a Google Doc, but I'm glad that now I have an 80,000 Hours list to share with them instead!.

What a world.
Now’s the time for public discussions about how to maximize the benefits and limit the harms of this powerful new technology.

it's a very cool feeling to have an author I respect comment on my review of his book! I enjoyed @ramez's sci-fi thriller Nexus and hope more futurists use fiction to build "verbal models" of their near-future sci-fi assumptions
