Hi there,
I am Shriya, reaching out on behalf of Frame Fellowship, a 10-week residential program in San Francisco, US for creators who want to become leading voices on AI and its impact on society. We were following your content and thought you are exactly the kind of voice we built this program for ...
It sounds like a dubious investment because its run by a hedge fund bro:
JueYan is a philanthropic advisor and a grantmaker. He runs the AI Safety Tactical Opportunities Fund (AISTOF), a pooled multi-donor charitable fund which seeks to reduce the probability and severity of catastrophic risks from advanced AI. Since inception in September 2023, the fund has raised more than $10mm and disbursed more than $7mm. JueYan serves on the boards of Family Empowerment Media and Suvita. He also advises Ambitious Impact and is a speculation grantor for the Survival and Flourishing Fund ("Our primary client is philanthropist Jaan Tallinn"). Previously, JueYan spent a decade earning-to-give as a hedge fund manager.
Mr. Zhang is a rare Asian-American in Effective Altruism. FEM helps women access contraception rather than encouraging some women to breed. Suvita helps poor Indians vaccinate their children.
Edit / Schmidt Sciences means "Eric Schmidt of Google." He clearly has not lost faith in EA!
Reminds me of how you got spam by following buttcoin in places (or how they just mindlessly spammed r/buttcoin). Best was the dubious job offer cause they liked my posts on r/buttcoin so much.
Wonder if the stipend is in tokens. And perhaps you could send somebody with some journalistic chops in your stead, if they are bored.

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.
AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)
This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.
[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
