Comment by Elliot Temple - I hope you're open to unexpected blunt criticism. This comma is wrong. This post has ten comma errors including repeated subject-verb splits.

Studying the craft of writing more, including comma rules, would materially help with your efforts to persuade people about AI risk.

I am absolutely not joking or trying to be a pedantic jerk. I wrote philosophy essays for over 15 years before I studied grammar. I wish I'd studied it earlier. Besides improving my writing, it ended up helping with text analysis, debate, and organizing my thoughts.
