I want to create lots of AI markets because I want there to be a large breadth of questions on the future possible tragectories of AI development to be predictable on prediction markets and I can’t add markets to polymarket or kalshi. I am now manarich so I can afford to do it on manifold, and with my holdings I got loans of ~20k per day so even if I spend all my mana I can make a dozen markets per day.

Recently, I have thought up an additional strategy to pay off the market costs as well. I can bet on these markets (as long as they’re definitely objective) and see if there’s users that disagree with the market price (by for example moving the market a lot). Then i can ask these users if they’d be interested in making larger bets if the situation is right. Assuming I am better than them at pricing these markets, I may make decent profits.

If this strategy works in my opinion, this market will resolve YES.

I welcome advice / criticisms / offers of collaboration on drafting a high quality set of questions. I may resolve this N/A or to a percentage if neither YES or NO seem accurate

@Bayesian Can we get some markets which test AI's mark on society? I really want to bet NO on 20% GDP growth by 2028. Economic measures are the most objective and require the least edge case thinking and subjective definitions (a "good" movie, a "purely language model" beating a GM)

If we get a singularity we're supposed to get 20+% Growth, 20+% unemployment. I'd bet large sums against those (large relative to my portfolio) at decent prices.

it doesn't really work. almost nobody is betting appreciable sums against me. this is so sad

ig it works a bit and is fun but idk

There is absolutely a dearth of good AI markets on Manifold and Metaculus, especially ones which target short timelines. I’m happy to take largeish positions where we disagree.

@AdamK LOL I’d hope to take largeish positions against people I’m confident to reliably beat but yeah i agree about the rarity of good ai markets and they seem very important to me
