Here's a quick mockup of what that might look like.
In my head you the voting UI is available after you click to expand and then scroll down to the bottom of the comment.
Added: Oops, I realize I did the quick takes, not the popular comments. Still, the relevant changes are very similar.
review-bot on What convincing warning shot could help prevent extinction from AI?The LessWrong Review [? · GW] runs every year to select the posts that have most stood the test of time. This post is not yet eligible for review, but will be at the end of 2025. The top fifty or so posts are featured prominently on the site throughout the year. Will this post make the top fifty?
keltan on Decaeneus's ShortformTeacher here, can confirm.
azergante on Asking for help as an O(1) lookupThis is a great use case for AI: expert knowledge tailored precisely to one’s needs
radford-neal-1 on Rapid capability gain around supergenius level seems probable even without intelligence needing to improve intelligenceI'm not attempting to speculate on what might be possible for an AI. I'm saying that there may be much low-hanging fruit potentially accessible to humans, despite there now being many high-IQ researchers. Note that the other attributes I mention are more culturally-influenced than IQ, so it's possible that they are uncommon now despite there being 8 billion people.
russellthor on Rapid capability gain around supergenius level seems probable even without intelligence needing to improve intelligenceNot following - where could the 'low hanging fruit' possibly be hiding? We have many of "Other attributes conducive to breakthroughs are a ..." in our world of 8 billion. The data strongly suggests we are in diminishing returns. What qualities could an AI of Einstein intelligence realistically have that would let it make such progress where no person has. It would seem you would need to appeal to other less well defined qualities such as 'creativity' and argue that for some reason the AI would have much more of that. But that seems similar to just arguing that it in fact has > Einstein intelligence.
habryka4 on Some Experiments I'd Like Someone To Try With An AmnesticYeah, seems right to me. If this is a recurring thing we might deactivate voting on the popular comments interface or something like that.
jkaufman on Extra Tall CribClimbing out of the crib is mildly dangerous, since it's farther down on the outside than the inside. So it's good practice to switch a way from a crib (or adjust the crib to be taller) once they get to where they'll be able to do that soon.
Even if they can do it safely, though, a crib they can get in and out of on their own defeats the purpose of a crib -- at that point you should just move to something optimized for being easy to get in and out of, like a bed.
aphyer on D&D.Sci Long War: Defender of Data-mocracyI'm always happy to have more players: if you want more than one day that's not a big deal, I'm happy to delay until next week if you'd like.
nicksharp on D&D.Sci Long War: Defender of Data-mocracyI would like one more day if no one objects. No big deal though, I may or may not have anything by tomorrow anyway.
Thanks for posting!
Love these challenges!!
