Almost certainly related to that email controversy from a few months ago. My sense is people have told him (or he has himself decided) to take a step back from public engagement.
I think I disagree with this, but it’s not a totally crazy call, IMO.
Yeah, beyond that honestly I would worry that his politics in general might do even more to polarize the issue in an undesirable way. I think it’s not necessarily a bad call in the current atmosphere.

I think this explains his absence from this + the FLI letter.
He still seems to be doing public outreach though: see interview NY Times, interview with RTE, Big Think video and interview with Analytics India Magazine.
None of these interviews have discussed the email.

Aha. Ugh, what an unfortunate sequence of events.
