Big bump to this! After talking to OpenAI and MIRI I have seen that I had misunderstood some of OpenAI's message. I am updating my beliefs accordingly, but taking my time in doing so.
These are some of the best counterarguments I've heard yet. Would you be interested in discussing this at more length over email or DM? I'm sorry I have done and said things you think are wrong. I am genuinely trying to do my best to do what is right.
