I expect most people to think either that AMF or MIRI is much more likely to do good. So from most agent’s perspectives, the unilateral defection is only better if their chosen org wins. If someone has more of a portfolio approach that weights longtermist and global poverty efforts similarly, then your point holds. I expect that’s a minority position though.
