[Author’s note: Still working through a backlog of old stuff to put up. These are the slides from a presentation I made two years ago. If you have any questions about it, feel free to ask me!]

About

This is the blog of Caspar Oesterheld, Johannes Treutlein and Daniel Kokotajlo. Caspar is a computer science PhD student at Duke, supervised by Vince Conitzer; Johannes is a math student at TU Berlin; and Daniel is a PhD student at UNC, supervised by Matt Kotzen and John Roberts. We mostly work on the decision theory of Newcomb-like scenarios and artificial intelligence. As effective altruists, we are also interested in a lot of other topics and occasionally blog about them.
