Wondering how much and what kind of media and policy attention would lead this to happen.
Seems unlikely the government would end up funding enough/all of the promising research that EA would feel its money is better spent elsewhere, right?

What would the world need to look like for EA to stop funding alignment research?

1. Solving easy problem of corrigibility (while still adhering to vNM axioms)
2. Interpretability to the level that we can extract a hand-coded algorithm from AlphaFold 2, and similar feats (maybe in total 100 bio. invested in interpretability or sth?)
3. Make GPT-4 never say *anything* violent
4. Formula for embedded diamond maximizer
Would at least make me think "ok, I should probably focus on other things"
