I read this as an admission of guilt and responsibility. What do you wish he had said?
Does it matter what he said? What has he done? As far as I’m aware he is mostly getting along with being a prominent figurehead of EA and a public intellectual.
Also this is hardly an admission of guilt. It primarily says “This seems bad and I will reflect on it.” He didn’t say
“This theft of many thousands of people’s life savings will forever be part of the legacy of Effective Altruism, and I must ensure that this movement is not responsible for something even worse in the future. I take responsibility for endorsing and supporting this awful person and for playing a key role in building an ecosystem in which he thrived. I have failed in my leadership position and I will work to make sure this great injustice cannot happen again and that the causes are rectified, and if I cannot accomplish that with confidence within 12 months then I will no longer publicly support the Effective Altruism movement.”
