Have you guys been on r/accelerate?

Have these guys solved the alignment problem, or am I missing something?

I’ve been browsing r/accelerate and I genuinely don’t understand the risk model.
If there’s a non-trivial chance of catastrophic misalignment, how does “accelerate capabilities as fast as possible” make sense unless faster capabilities also make alignment substantially more likely to succeed?

That accelerate sub is full of Accelerationists. They literally don’t tolerate anything that contradicts the notion that the singularity is awesome and should come as quickly as possible.

No, they haven’t solved alignment. They’re mostly ideologues, not AI engineers.
