  on: Au­gust ’25 EA Newslet­ter Poll: I’d be do­ing less good if I hadn’t heard of EA.

  I’d be doing less good with my life if I hadn’t heard of effective altruism

  Very difficult to imagine the opposite since I learned about EA before I had chosen a particular career path and not sure what I’d be doing otherwise! Always gave to charity, but it’s true that most of it would be directed towards religious organizations with dubious financials than transparent, audited charities.

  on: 80,000 Hours is pro­duc­ing AI in Con­text — a new YouTube chan­nel. Our first video, about the AI 2027 sce­nario, is up!

  I was thoroughly impressed and found the video very approachable, especially as someone who had been intentionally avoiding AI 2027 content for mental health reasons. I am excited to see more videos, and Aric’s demeanour and the video’s style helped me get through the otherwise dark content.
