We're typing this on Less Wrong, dude

So do you think there is a causal connection between the number of unique pageviews on LW and the state of AI research (size of programs, funding, etc) out in the real world?

AI research in general, only marginally. That's a big field with a lot of other things driving it. AI safety research, or e.g. awareness of the heuristics-and-biases program among LW's target demographic? Yes, absolutely.
