Whilst zdgroff’s comment “acknowledges the value of x-risk reduction in general from a non-longtermist perspective” it downplays it quite heavily imo (and the OP comment does even more, using the pejorative “fanatical”).
I don’t think the linked post makes the point very persuasively. Looking at the table, at best there is an equivalence.
I think a rough estimate of the cost effectiveness of pushing for a Pause is orders of magnitude higher.
Thanks for the explanation.
