What we’re about
Oxford Rationalish is a community that has fun caring about nuance, and engaging in good-faith debate with open and kind skepticism.
This is a place to dive into weeds, to be curious about other people's perspectives, and to love finding out that you were wrong!
Some of the things we're into include:
- making predictions, seeing how well we did, and working out how to get better
- discussing how to align Artificial Intelligence to our values (technically and philosophically)
- exploring systems and games which encourage mutual understanding, trust and connection.
It's associated with sites like Less Wrong and blogs like Astral Codex Ten, SlateStarCodex, and Overcoming Bias. It's also friendly with the Effective Altruism movement.
Socials every month, and Applied Rationality workshops from time to time!
