I’d like to suggest a little bit more clarity here. The phrases you use refer to some knowledge that isn’t explicitly stated here. “in light of a recently announced startup” and “three people at the same org” make sense to someone who already knows the context of what you are writing about, but it is confusing to a reader who doesn’t have the same background knowledge that you do.
Once upon a time, some people were arguing that AI might kill everyone, and EA resources should address that problem instead of fighting Malaria.
So OpenPhil poured millions of dollars into orgs such as EpochAI (they got 9 million).
Now 3 people from EpochAI created a startup to provide training data to help AI replace human workers.
Some people are worried that this startup increases AI capabilities, and therefore increases the chance that AI will kill everyone.
100 percent agree. I dont understand the entire post because I don’t know the context. I don’t think alluding to something helps, better to say it explicitly.

I tend to agree; better to be explicit especially as the information is public knowledge anyway.
