We need to translate Russian news post into English, format: first line headline under 90 chars, no markdown, then blank line, then body split into short paragraphs (2-3 sentences each) separated by blank lines. Wrap few genuinely important facts — key numbers, percentages, drug/company/gene names, dates — in double asterisks. At most 4-5 per post. Wrap study/journal citations and publication references in single underscores. We need to preserve facts, numbers, names, citations exactly. No added commentary. Identify important facts: dates: 31 августа (August 31). Possibly year? Not given. Could be 2024? Not specified. We'll keep "31 августа". Could wrap date in double asterisks? It's a date. Also maybe "80,000 Hours". That's an organization name. Could be considered important fact. Also "JKM". Also "Will MacAskill". Also "Better Futures". Also "EA Forum". Also "effective altruism". But we need at most 4-5 double asterisks. Choose: date (31 августа), organization 80,000 Hours, Will MacAskill, Better Futures, maybe EA Forum? But we need to be selective. We also need to wrap study/journal citations in single underscores. There are none explicit like "Nature Aging, July 2026". The text mentions no journal citations. So we may not need underscores. Thus we will put double asterisks around: 31 августа, 80,000 Hours, Will MacAskill, Better Futures, maybe EA Forum? That's 5. Ensure not more than 5. Now produce headline under 90 chars: maybe "EA Forum Essay Urges Considering Welfare of Future Digital Minds". Count characters: Let's count: "EA Forum Essay Urges Considering Welfare of Future Digital Minds". That's 61? Let's count: EA(2) + space=3, Forum=5 =>8, space=9, Essay=4 =>13, space=14, Urges=5 =>19, space=20, Considering=10 =>30, space=31, Welfare=7 =>38, space=39, of=2 =>41, space=42, Future=6 =>48, space=49, Digital=7 =>56, space=57, Minds=5 =>62. Under 90. Now body: need short paragraphs 2-3 sentences each, separated by blank lines. We'll translate the Russian content. Let's craft paragraphs: Paragraph 1: On August 31, forum user JKM posted a normative essay on effective altruism priorities, proposing separate evaluation of preserving humanity, loss of human influence over the future, and aligning AI with human values. He argues that the possibility of future AI systems having subjective experience calls for taking their welfare seriously. Paragraph 2: Effective altruism directs resources where the greatest expected benefit lies. JKM critiques how its long‑term branch prioritizes issues, splitting the analysis into preserving humanity, the risk of human disempowerment, and AI alignment. Under disempowerment he envisions a future where people survive but lose the ability to shape decisions about that future. Paragraph 3: This reframing changes the basis on which JKM evaluates civilization’s preservation: its value depends on how well its inhabitants fare in the continued future. Since humans could maintain factory farming or create digital beings capable of suffering, he makes the welfare of future beings a separate strategic criterion. Paragraph 4: In discussing disempowerment, JKM adds another risk: advanced AI could displace humans from work, concentrating wealth and decision‑making among system owners. He treats power concentration as a distinct harm that may persist even under formal human oversight. Paragraph 5: For AI, JKM prefers Will MacAskill’s “value alignment” proposal: a system should explain its reasoning, revise its values, and abandon harmful goals, remaining corrigible and limited. Digital minds, in his argument, are possible future AI systems capable of experience ranging from pleasant to painful; their numbers could be enormous, and decisions made in the coming decades could set long‑term conditions for their existence.… 🔗 Read original →
