In past I've said AI foom worries don't fit w/ econ growth lit. I now say @paulfchristiano AI worries don't fit w/ econ agency lit. He claims smarter AI makes for apocalyptic agency failures/rents; humans "lose any real ability to influence" society. overcomingbias.com/2019/04/agency…

My general presumption for more & symmetric info, + concrete benefits on tax & other corruption, pushed me to favor publishing tax records, contrary to @tylercowen. As they do in Scandinavia, Wisconsin, US property taxes, & as US feds did in 1861 & 1924. overcomingbias.com/2019/04/publis…

"Robin Hanson, by contrast, is a partisan of optimization; he speaks out against bias & unprincipled favoritism and in favor of systems like prediction markets which would force the 'best ideas to win'” Yes AGENTS should optimize. But I'm okay w/ individuals being free to waste.
