KvmanThinking comments on If I have some money, whom should I donate it to in order to reduce expected P(doom) the most?

[KvmanThinking]

so, don’t donate to people who will take my money and go buy OpenAI more supercomputers while thinking that they’re doing a good thing?

and even if I do donate to some people who work on alignment, they might publish it and make OpenAI even more confident that by the time they finish we’ll have it under control?

or some other weird way donating might increase P(doom) that I haven’t even thought of?

that’s a good point

now i really don’t know what to do
