:( Bye, thanks for your reading group. I really appreciated it and your summaries.

What were some of the errors you found in the sequences? Was it mostly AI stuff?

Even though I'm two-thirds through the sequences and have been around the site for two months now, I still don't really understand AI/haven't been convinced to donate to something other than givewell's charities. I feel like when I finally understand it, I probably will switch over to existential risk reduction charities though, so thanks for your thoughts there. I might have figured it was safe to assume MIRI was the best without really thinking for myself, just because I generally feel like the people here are smart and put a lot of thought into things.
