A pretty poor piece of journalism in my opinion. It gets a number of facts wrong. For example:
Adam D’Angelo doesn’t have “deep ties” to EA
Jaan Tallinn’s comments aren’t “against EA”, just saying that these governance mechanisms weren’t enough (I doubt many EA AI Safety advocates have claimed such a thing)
The claim that the board didn’t consult with layers of a communications firm, based on this tweet which refers to this WSJ article which doesn’t mention either of those. It could be true of course, but they weren’t justified in claiming it
