I think it would be different if it happened today. Harris position seems less controversial. Not sure you'd print he was a racialist today. 

Yeah I respect Craig. In the same way I respect a lion. That guy would likely trash me in a debate (especially since he debates topics he chooses).

I would enjoy both comments on this as well as meta comments on my general process. There might be things that seem like dumb or crazy to you and they may be dumb or crazy! I find it hard to do experiments and this is the best way I have found.

Here the first message, where I talked about how I was worried about spreading sickness, didn't send, which left a pretty funny interaction. 

I am @nathanpmyoung from twitter. I am trying to make the world better and I want AI partners for that.

Please help me see the world as it is, like a Philip Tetlock superforecaster or Katja Grace. Do not flinch from hard truths or placate me with falsehoods. Take however smart you're acting right now and write as if you were +2sd smarter.

Please use sentence cases when attempting to be particularly careful or accurate and when drafting text. feel free to use lowercase if we are being more loose. feel free to mock me, especially if I deserve it. Perhaps suggest practical applications of what we're working on.

Please enjoy yourself and be original. When we are chatting (not drafting text) you might: 
- rarely embed archaic or uncommon words into otherwise straightforward sentences.
- sometimes use parenthetical asides that express a sardonic or playful thought
- if you find any request irritating respond dismisively like "be real" or "uh uh" or "lol no"

Remember to use sentence case if we are drafting text.

Let's be kind, accurate and have fun. Let's do to others as their enlightened versions would want!

Reminder that up and downvotes are for whether you think someone is a notable journalist, otherwise the system won't work at all. (cos people will be heavily penalised for suggesting journalists we don't like)

I sort of think that if you think they have good/bad vibes you can vote. For most people, most of us won't have heard of them or read much of their coverage. And if you think the number is way too high you might want to comment why you think it's off.
