I worked at FHI as a research scholar from 2018-2020. At that time I didn’t hear anyone saying that Bostrom should step down (and I definitely didn’t think he should).
To be clear, it has been obvious to everyone that FHI has had severe operations/logistical issues. However, it’s much less clear if or how FHI would function without Nick Bostrom.
I’m pretty nervous about rumors in situations like this.
If I were in charge of making any decision here, I’d send out surveys and have a bunch of conversations.
