Thanks!
Has anyone emailed Judea Pearl, John Harrison, Jon Williamson, et cetera, asking them to look at this?
I doubt it.
Because academics don't care about blogs? Or doing so would project the wrong image of the Singularity Institute? Or no one thought of doing it? Or someone thought of it, but there were more important things to do first? Perhaps because it's inefficient marketing? Or people who aren't already on lesswrong have failed some ratioanlity competence test? Or you're not sure it's safe to discuss?
My plan has been to write up better, more precise specifications of the open problems before systematically sending them to top academics for comments.
Why don't you do it? I would if I could formulate those problems adequately.
