Is that idea that once these longtermist interventions are fully-funded (diminishing returns), then we start looking at shortterm interventions?
I think the claim is that we don’t know that any short-termist interventions are good in expectation, because of cluelessness.
For what it’s worth, I don’t agree with this claim; this depends on your specific beliefs about the long-term effects of interventions.
