You worry about Anthropic’s money being a corrupting influence, but their whole company is far far worse than FTX, because of the existential risk it’s subjecting the entire world to. Not only are they continuing in the suicide-onmicide race, they are now leading it!
If you work at Anthropic, please quit and make a big public statement about this. You shouldn’t be waiting for the IPO, because there’s not much point in having millions to donate if we’re all dead in short order (because of how those millions were made). If you own shares, sell them (even pre-IPO, if you can). I no longer consider myself EA because of this issue. Whilst the money and power in EA is pro-Anthropic, I don’t want to associate with it.
