Wiping out all value in the universe is really, really bad. Non-neglected topics can be safely ignored, often consensus trusted. EA should optimize largely for EA’s reputation. Belief that it is good to convert others and add resources to EA. Belief in the movement and methods themselves. You shouldn’t value yourself, locals or family more than others. Working together is more effective than cultivating competition. We owe the future quite a lot, arguably everything. The best way to do good yourself is to act selflessly to do good. You should to plan your life around the impact it will have. Shut up and multiply, two are twice as good as one. Distribution of funds via organizational grants and applications. Emphasis on that which can be seen and measured. Alternatives are considered at best to be mistakes. Although I did attempt to make the list match my perceptions as much as possible, the list is included primarily to give an idea of the type of thing that is assumed here. Note that the rest of the post does not depend on the exact points or their wordings. Here is my attempt to summarize the framework, which came out to 21 points. This parallels EA more broadly, where within-paradigm critiques are welcomed (although, as everywhere, often incorrect disregarded) but deeper critiques are unwelcome, and treated as mistakes. Effective Altruism, in this model, very much wants criticism of its tactics, and mostly wants them also of its strategy, but only within the framework. It is sending a set of signals that such punches should be pulled, both for the contest and in general. The core critique I am offering is that the contest is mostly taking things like the list below as givens, rather than as things to be questioned. Stay tuned.Įffective Altruism has a core set of assumptions, and a core method of modeling and acting in the world. What actually wins will be an informative experiment. The exercise I read this as being is still worth doing, if not as worthwhile as the thing I’d rather be happening, so long as it doesn’t create a story that the thing I want to happen did indeed happen and is thus handled, when it isn’t handled.
