This is a solid data point so thanks for mentioning it. It is maybe worth mentioning that, as much as Emile and you may be “critical of EA”, Emile was formerly quite friendly and you and I are having this conversation on the forum.
I think you’re likely both “more EA” than the average person, and definitely more EA than the average detractor that I have in mind. What it means to “be EA” is amorphous and uncertain here, but many people who would consider themselves EAs are also critical of it sometimes.
I’d be interested to see how much Timnit donates, or any of those who wrote the typical SBF articles, but I highly doubt their numbers would look like those above.
