This post belongs to the set of LW articles concerned with taking over the world and/or achieving significant worldly success, doing so specifically in order to do good, and advocating more effort towards practical payoffs as opposed to theory debates and finetuning of ideals. Other examples known to me: the first series of articles by Giles, how to take over Rome (h/t Dorikka for pointing out that one), "The Goal of the Bayesian Conspiracy", patrissimo on how LW distracts you from making practical progress, lukeprog on "the power of agency", and I'll throw in Leverage Research and my critique, though they are an organization outside of and separate to LW. I've scorned the more hyperbolic claims and plans several times, but cumulatively, I do see the potential for something to emerge which is cognizant of all LW's meta meta wisdom, has LW-friendly values, and yet still manages to make a difference.
