The "public debate" about AI is confusing for the general public and for policymakers because it is a three-sided debate
Chris Elster172

Your three sided debate maps on to the Collective Intelligence Project's "Transformative Technology Trilemma", which has corners on "participation", "safety", and "progress". https://cip.org/whitepaper#trilemma

Was not aware of this Collective Intelligence Project and glad to learn about them. I'll take a look. Thanks. I'm very eager to find other "three-sided" frameworks that this one might map onto.  Maybe OT, but I also have been reading Arnold Kling's "Three Languages of Politics" but so far have been having trouble mapping Kling's framework onto this one 
Slow motion videos as AI risk intuition pumps

What is the source on this being slowed down by 100x? 

Here it says Magyar filmed at 1300 fps, and the video info says 50 fps; does this imply 1300/50=26x slow down? 

Also, if the video is 120 seconds long, 100x slow down implies the train stopping took 1.2 seconds, which seems too fast. 

26x slow down implies the train took 4.6 seconds to stop, which seems more plausible to me.
