I think this post should be on the Forum and doesn’t feel too much like marketing/propaganda to me. I wouldn’t have known about this article if not for WAI posting about it.
I guess if we start getting way too many (i.e. more than 4 a day across different orgs?) of these positive self-posts by organizations on the forum, we should start getting concerned, but I don’t think we’re close to that point yet.
Yeah, to be clear I’m happy for EA and EA-adjacent orgs to publish news they’re excited about on the Forum, and this certainly qualifies.
Something about the phrasing does bug me, but I’m not sure exactly what. This could be explained by WAI copying phrasing from another source (e.g. promotional material) to make this post, which would be understandable as a time-saver.
Hi Will, Hollis here! You’re correct, this is crossposted from our blog, which has a different tone from most EA Forum posts. I’ve added a note and a link above to clarify.
