The writeup is still a good high-level overview of the kinds of activities I do and have explored, but it’s outdated because it doesn’t mention that I’ve led two protests now (I’m working on a post-mortem I’ll share on EA Forum), doesn’t explain my relationship to PauseAI the group (I’m independent for now but use the PauseAI branding sometimes and may found a PauseAI US 501(c)(4)), and most of all the budget doesn’t reflect what I could do with more money. The main thing is still funding myself, but I will fairly soon need to be able to pay employees to have the infrastructure we need for larger grassroots people organizing activities. I haven’t decided on a larger structure and priced it all out yet, in part because I think there’s still a lot I can accomplish as an individual.
I have a GoFundMe that I share on social media for small donations. GoFundMe has a transaction fee, though, so for people who wanted to give me medium-sized donations (like a few $100 to a few $1000) we did it through Zelle. Anyone who is interested please feel free to DM me for that info!
I’m pretty convinced. Has anyone written about how to find these types of opportunities?
Well one such opportunity is me (individual, here’s an outdated writeup of what I do) and Center for AI Policy is a 501(c)(4) doing AI Safety lobbying.
Can you elaborate on how the writeup is outdated?
What is the best way for an individual to fund you?
