What’s wrong with “make a specific targeted suggestion for a specific person to do the thing, with an argument for why this is better than whatever else the person is doing?”, like Linch suggests?
This can still be hard, but I think the difficulty lives in the territory, and is an achievable goal for someone who follows EA Forum and pays attention to what organizations do what.
I work for Habryka, so my opinion here should be discounted. (for what it’s worth I think I have disagreed with some of his other comments this week, and I think your post did update me on some other things, which I’m planning to write up). But re:
this seems egregiously inaccurate to me. Two of the three journalists said some flavor of “it’s complicated” on the topic of whether to delay publication, for very similar reasons to what Habryka has mentioned. It seems like at best it was a wash, and it felt pretty weird in the OP that you wrote them up as if they supported your thesis.
