i get that they're probably busy making AGI but surely they can spare a few hours to make a proper website? or is this some 4d-chess countersignalling i'm too stupid to notice?

What’s wrong with their website? Seems fast and gives me the information I need.

What’s mildly annoying to me is their domain only returns an A record.

> gives me the information I need.

I mean, I'd like at least a brief blurb about their entire premise of safety. Maybe a definition or indication of a public consultation or... something.. otherwise the insinuation is that these three dudes are gonna sit around defining it on instinct, as if it's not a ludicrously hard human problem.

On the contrary, I think it's a great website. They made it clear from the get go that they're not selling any products any time soon, why would they need a flashy website? They're looking for scientists, techies and the like, and the website reflects their target audience.

If you're too stupid to notice then why did you notice?

(I think it's branding, yes. A kind of "we don't care about aesthetics, we care about superintelligence" message)

'Proper' websites are marketing and signalling. If you're creating a company that doesn't intend to do either of those till it has a product, why bother with more?

yes, it's countersignaling
