Cause Area Tier List
F-Tier
Animal Advocacy
Billions spent, but they still haven’t got a single animal to advocate for EA ideas.
AI Safety
It’s not clear that we wan’t AIs to be safe—they pose a threat to mankind. If anything, we should be trying to kill them.
Rationality
Entirely dominated by wordcels who can’t handle surds.
Wild animal suffering
Not neglected. There’s trillions of living creatures suffering perfectly well as it is.
S-Tier
Meta-EA
The numbers speak for themselves. Meta was valued at $1.24 trillion, Electronic Arts at $35 billion.
Climate-change
Incredible successful. Everyone in the western world, worth knowing, has a thermostat.
EA Forum
It’s important to pay your staff well for the value they create. No organisation pays its staff more per unit value created.
Climate change is going pretty well, I’ve heard carbon emissions are up!
Also, humans are carbon-based creatures so having more carbon around seems plausibly good 😊
More EA success stories:
Pandemics. We have now had the first truly global pandemic in decades, perhaps ever.
Nuclear war. Thanks to recent events, the world is closer than ever to a nuclear catastrophe.
It’s not all good news though. Unfortunately, poverty seems to be trending down, there’s less lead in the paint, and some say AI could solve most problems despite the risks.
How about improving the climate of discussions on the forum?
That’s much too Meta.
