I am wiser, albeit poorer: the bet resolved in Carl’s favour. I will edit this comment with the donation destination he selects, with further lamentations from me in due course.
Carl has gotten back to me with where he would like to donate his gains, ill-gotten through picking on epistemic inferiors—akin to crocodiles in the Serengeti river picking off particularly frail or inept wildebeest on their crossing. The $1000 will go to MIRI.
With cognitive function mildly superior to the median geriatric wildebeest, I can take some solace that these circumstances imply this sum is better donated by him than I, and that MIRI is doing better on a crucial problem for the far future than I had supposed.

Why do people keep betting against Carl Shulman!
