EAs and Musk have lots of connections/interactions—e.g., Musk is thanked in the acknowledgments of Bostrom’s 2014 book Superintelligence for providing feedback on the draft of the book. Musk attended FLI’s Jan 2015 Puerto Rico conference. Tegmark apparently argues with Musk about AI a bunch at parties. Various Open Phil staff were on the board of OpenAI at the same time as Musk, before Musk’s departure. Etc.
