Hugo de Garis is around two orders of magnitude more harmless than Ben.
What about all the other people Ben might help obtain funding for, partly due to his position at SIAI?
And what about the public relations/education aspect? It’s harmless that SIAI appears to not consider AI to be a serious existential risk?
This part was not answered. It may be a question to ask someone other than Eliezer. Or just ask really loudly. That sometimes works too.
The reverse seems far more likely.

I don’t know how to parse that. What do you mean by “the reverse”?
Ben’s position at SIAI may reduce the expected amount of funding he obtains for other existentially risky persons.
