Thariq argues AGI-pilled optimism answers economic doomerism

AIThariq, who is listed as an Anthropic account, says most people are bad at predicting how more intelligence will show up in the economy. He argues that the simple view that AI will cost a lot and unemploy everyone is not very AGI-pilled and should be avoided because it could hyperstition that outcome into reality.

AIThariq, an Anthropic employee, says the answer to economic doomerism is to be more AGI-pilled. He says he believes in a well-aligned ASI that can explain its work, bring people along, and make each individual maximally effective.
