I talked with Robert Wright about how I call out bad people who used to be my friends on twitter for building dangerous AI. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Amc8...

Those trying to build superintelligent AI are traitors to humanity.

From Steven Adler, ex-OpenAI safety researcher, on OpenAI dissolving a THIRD safety team-- the former Mission Alignment team.

The WWI weapons and military arms race took war from an arena for masculine virtues to a tragedy no one wanted to be in. We're approaching a similar realization about tech with the AI arms race-- when you're playing with something powerful enough, it stops being a game.

The answer remains to #PauseAI

In my latest for Foom, where I'm trying to provide free, high-quality, independent reporting on AI safety, I wanted to interview someone who could help me understand the challenging internal dynamics of the community. This was @ilex-ulmus.bsky.social. www.foommagazine.org/the-moral-cr...

AI companies know they'll have to spend millions to have a chance of defeating the public's demand for sensible regulation.

We're getting there! Can you bring us closer to our goal so we can have a powerful tool to help us connect people to their representatives?

PauseAI US needs a CRM to connect more people to their representatives to share their concerns about AI danger. It's going to make calling, tracking, and managing sophisticated multi-step campaigns waaay easier, which means more calls. Please contribute below! 👇

🚨NEW YORKERS: Tell Governor Hochul to sign the RAISE Act 🚨 NY’s RAISE Act, which would require the largest AI developers to have a safety plan, just passed the legislature. Call Governor Hochul at 1-518-474-8390 to tell her to sign the RAISE Act into law.

🧬Happy Transposon Day! 🎉Each year on the 16th of June we commemorate the birthdate of the founder of transposable element research, Barbara McClintock (1902-1992). #TransposonDay2025 #MobileDNAjournal

Bluesky seems so much nicer than Twitter, but I had wondered if that’s just because I’m a small account here. Pretty sure the size of my account had nothing to do with twitter showing nothing about the No Kings protest, though…

AI disasters alone will not do the work of building an AI Safety movement and passing regulation-- we have to put in the work educating people so that they can even *recognize* AI disasters for what they mean if and when they occur. hollyelmore.substack.com/p/the-myth-o...

Please call your Senators and tell them not to pass the AI preemption provision smuggled into the budget reconciliation bill! This provision would prevent state legislatures from regulating dangerous AI with no indication that Congress will provide that regulation instead.

Being involved in AI Safety has been my first real brush w misogyny. The boys think AI is their domain. It feels too much like what I imagine would happen if I DEI’d my way onto the football team. I’m not trying to take your game. You’ve actually been playing w real life.

Step-by-step instructions for calling your Senators and the members of the Budget committee:

Please call your Senators and tell them not to pass the AI preemption provision smuggled into the budget reconciliation bill! This provision would prevent state legislatures from regulating dangerous AI with no indication that Congress will provide that regulation instead.

🚨 We need YOUR help to stop a dangerous AI bill from passing the Senate. 🚨 tl;dr: Contact your Senators to tell them you oppose AI preemption, and ask them to raise a point of order that preempting state AI regulation violates the Byrd Rule. Take these 3 steps TODAY👇 1/

Enjoyed this chat w/ @ilex-ulmus.bsky.social about why there's so little awareness of threats AI will pose (and why even some in the 'safety community' don't grasp how critical international cooperation will be). You can watch here or listen on the NonZero podcast. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEI5...

We've been conditioned to view warnings about #AI capabilities and safety issues as hype. It isn't. Worth watching this interview with @ilex-ulmus.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEI5...

It’s been a wild other-side-of-clouds moment to see how some people react to my broadcast messages (i.e. YouTube comments). It’s an unintentional window directly into their souls and what is important to them about themselves.

"The values, personality, and worldview of AI will vindicate that I have the right values, personality, and worldview" is a shockingly big subtext in the AI discourse. A lot of this is just a culture war.
