taking that seriously: wouldn’t it be the best for EA, to officially say that any fraud is bad (thus getting good PR), but at the same time internally looking away, thus not to be forced to see fraud?
Would still using the money already be that?
This is a perfect example of Goodhart’s law. More specifically, assuming you don’t value fraud or lying (in a moral anti-realist framework), not seeing fraud or lying does not equal no fraud or lying is occuring.
This is a thermonuclear idea bound to fail due to Extremal Goodhart.
