The survey lists CFAR under “Raising The Sanity Waterline”. I donate to CFAR because it’s an AI risk charity. I don’t donate to charities that aim at “Raising The Sanity Waterline”.
CFAR changed its mission to AI risk in the last handful of years. Their original mission was raising the sanity waterline, hence why that line comes with a date marker.
CFAR’s 2013 description of its mission was “to create people who can and will solve important problems”, via a community with a mix of competence, epistemic rationality, and do-gooding.
It was clear to me as a donor in 2013 that CFAR was primarily motivated by AI risk, but I got that impression mainly from talking to the people involved.
The 2013 date marker was only on one of the two references to CFAR when I took the survey. That was confusing.
