I would guess too that these two events have made it much easier to reference EA in passing. eg I think this article wouldn’t have been written 18 months ago. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/10/13/open-philanthropy-funding-ai-policy-00121362
So I think there is a real jump of notoriety once the journalistic class knows who you are. And they now know who we are. “EA, the social movement involved in the FTX and OpenAI crises” is not a good epithet.
