Gretchen Krueger quit recently: https://x.com/GretchenMarina/status/1793403475260551517
She has a 2-year-old EA forum account https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/users/gretchen-krueger-1 , has written reports in 2020 and in 2021 where most (all?) co-authors are in the EA community, is mentioned in this post, and is Facebook friends with at least one CEA employee
tbf it’s pretty hard to do any work in AIS without coauthoring things with EAs at least sometimes, for better or worse (probably worse).
It’s possible to work at OpenAI and care about safety without being friends with CEA staff though.
It doesn’t seem that anyone OpenAI besides the EA community is too worried, which to me is a positive update.
