Hmm, I think if smart EA/Rat types get “corrupted” in general, they’ll present as thoughtful people with reasons that are hard to dismiss quickly when questioned by EAs. I get the vague sense that your evidence bar for “corruption” is going to be too high to be useful in most worlds where there’s a lot of corruption.
(that’s not to say that EAs/Rats/etc. who join labs/start wildly profitable companies speeding up AI progress have been “corrupted”—I just think if they were, it would present pretty similarly to how it has done and it’s hard to get lots of easy to share evidence)
