Sorry, I didn’t mean to dismiss the importance of the conflict of interest or say it isn’t affecting my views.
I’ve sometimes seen people reason along the lines of “Since Holden is married to Daniela, this must mean he agrees with Anthropic on specific issue X,” or “Since Holden is married to Daniela, this must mean that he endorses taking a job at Anthropic in specific case Y.” I think this kind of reasoning is unreliable and has been incorrect in more than one specific case. That’s what I intended to push back against.
