I didn’t consider the spending speed here. It highlights another important part of the analysis one should make when considering neartermist donations conditional on the short timelines. Dependent on humanity solving alignment, you not only want to spend the money before a superintelligence appears but also might maximize the impact by, e.g., delaying deaths until then
I definitely agree people should be thinking about this! I wrote about something similar last week :-)
Awesome!
