Three sequences on AI Safety were recently released. I'd suggest that in general it is probably better when new material isn't released that fast. Those sequences are quite technical so each post requires a reasonable amount of time to be invested. This means:
- There is more psychological pressure to read each post quickly rather than taking the time to understand and internalise the ideas
- There are less comments because keeping up with the posts reduces the time people have to write comments and if you're behind, by the time you catch up there's less value writing a comment as less people will see it
This isn't a particularly important post, just feedback for the future.
Overall I agree with you, and I think all else equal we should space things out more.
One thing you might be underestimating: We are not even halfway through the new sequences. We are releasing one post every day, and the total release schedule is already about 2.5 months long. If we had doubled the interval between posts, we would have had a 5 month release schedule for the three new sequences, and I think that would have started to impose serious costs by not having all the content available for people who want to take a month off to focus on getting into AI Alignment, or to allow other people to reference and build on the ideas.
