It’s hard to fathom what’s straightforwardly possible already.
You’re so right, I should have caught that. The database data is good, but Opus 4.5 did a rare error. I’ve since updated the response.
I fed your message to Scry! Seems the forum is significantly more longtermist.
Announcing Scry: A research tool over arXiv, EA Forum, etc. w/ SQL + Vibe/Vector Algebra
I just built something that can help donors explore the EA/alignment ecosystem: alignment-explorer.exopriors.com.
It’s a read-only SQL + vector search API over a continuously growing alignment-adjacent corpus, that Claude Code w/ Opus 4.5 is exceptionally good at using. The compositional vibe search (vector mixing) functionality combined with long query time limits is quite something.
I am new to EA, but it seems that a true effective altruist would not be interested in retiring. When just a $1000 can avert decades of disability-adjusted life years (years of suffering), I do not think it is fair to sit back and relax (even in your 70′s) when you could still be earning to give.
Update: The service has been improving a lot. Infra is more robust, higher query limits, more sources, a further optimized Claude Prompt with much improved guidance for meaningful embedding vector manipulation. Someone could write some interesting quicktakes from the research you’re easily able to do with this.
