I’m a student of moral science at the university of Ghent. I also started and ran EA Ghent from 2020 to 2024, at which point I quit in protest over the Manifest scandal (and the reactionary trend it highlighted). I now no longer consider myself an EA (but I’m still part of GWWC and EAA, and if the rationalists split off I’ll join again).
If you’re interested in philosophy and mechanism design, consider checking out my blog.
I co-started Effectief Geven (Belgian effective giving org), am a volunteer researcher at SatisfIA (AI-safety org) and a volunteer writer at GAIA (Animal welfare org).
Possible conflict of interests: I have never received money from EA, but could plausibly be biased in favor of the organizations I volunteer for.
Thank you! The cropping in photoshop only takes five minutes at most, so it isn’t a big deal. All of the images are made with creative commons images, except for “moral anti-realism” (which I took from Lukas’ own page, so I assume he has the rights) and “rwas library” which I found on a bunch of websites with no indication of it’s status (if it does get copyrightstriked I’ll photoshop a similar looking image).
Btw, could you add an “EA Forum (meta)” tag to this post? I can’t add tags at the moment.
