Suggestions for Questions Specific to the Center for Applied Rationality

Maybe take the opportunity to ask more questions about CFAR, and ask the CFAR staff you know if they want questions answered, because they love data. As a CFAR workshop alumnus, I'm interested in seeing where that community is headed. Here are some suggestions:

  • If you're not one of the CFAR alumni, what's your estimate that you will attend one of their workshops in the next [six months, one year, two year, insert timescale here]?

  • If you haven't attended a CFAR workshop, do you ever intend to?

  • If you don't want to attend a CFAR workshop, what's stopping you the most from going?

  • If you're unsure if you would want to attend a CFAR workshop, what would increase your confidence that it's worthwhile to attend one?

  • [Likert scale, 1 to 7]: 1 being 'not very different', and 7 being 'very different', what's your opinion of how different is rationality as it is expressed on Less Wrong from applied rationality as it is taught by the CFAR?
