I think that EA orgs should not cut ties with Bostrom, but if he was found to be using this language again then we should do so for a period eg a year.
I think this has probably really harmed Bostrom so I am satisfied that others won’t do this. That said, I’m curious to hear from those who think EA hasn’t done enough here.
I think EA orgs should 100% cut ties with Bostrom. I can’t understand how people here think the thing he apologized for—a racist slur—was in any way the central aspect of why his expressed views, both in the original email and in the new text, are bad.
But I thought he was dangerous even before the current scandal.

What (bad) views do you believe Bostrom holds “in the new text”?
In what way did you think he was dangerous before the current scandal?
