To rehash the timeline:
- WSJ article goes up 18 minutes before this post
- Arguably the most viral post from a IC researcher since the beginning of the supercycle
- Kokotajlo on Rogan the next day
- D senate leadership: Van Hollen (MD), Murphy (CT), Kelly (AZ), Gallego (AZ) post lockstep messaging about x-risk this morning
- Appearances on Fox, CNN booked the following evening.
- Sanders (VT) announces briefing next week with Tegmark and Cotra
Its not at all conspiratorial to see the pattern here. Safety types have dominated this conversation since the beginning by remaining significantly more savvy than any other actor. They're locked out of the Trump admin by Sacks and Michael and are clearly making a play for a 2027 legislative push within D controlled congress.
