This EA Forum post announces Joe Carlsmith’s career transition from Open Philanthropy to Anthropic while providing extensive justification for working at a frontier AI company despite serious safety concerns. The document demonstrates exceptional epistemic transparency by explicitly acknowledging double-digit extinction probabilities while defending the decision on consequentialist grounds. The analysis reveals sophisticated reasoning about institutional impact, though it contains notable tensions between stated beliefs (no adequate safety plan exists, no company should impose such risks) and actions (joining Anthropic anyway). The document’s greatest epistemic virtue is its unflinching acknowledgment of catastrophic risks; its primary weakness is underexploring how individual rationalization might systematically lead safety-concerned researchers to converge on similar justifications for joining labs they believe pose existential threats.
