I think it’s a reasonable assumption that most EAs will have updated down on how much they trust the decision making of the entire set of senior EAs given that 3 have now caused large amounts of damage to EA’s reputation, even though we probably don’t expect any other senior EAs to be directly responsible for the Bostrom and Tegmark issues.
I disagree with the title being unkind, I think it’s fair to not trust a small number of people with this much power over EA’s reputation, even if we are grateful for everything they have put into the movement. They shouldn’t even be trusting themselves with this power and I’m sure a decent proportion don’t.
