Habryka responds to jdpressman, clarifying his stance: he denies that MIRI tried to take over the world or allowed fans to think so, but admits he was too dismissive of the claim that MIRI planned to build a 'brain in a box' implementing human CEV. He argues this is not a repudiation of the brain-in-box idea but a refutation of the 'MIRI takeover' narrative.
