I knew this guy to be operating in good faith, and the point is a meaningful caveat to the model that safety/capabilities investment ratio is what matters
What would you have done, just not mention the person works at mechanize? I happen to know someone who works there and had this convo in person, not due to the twitter mind virus. And I think people should know why the claim in the post is relevant; omitting it would be omitting important context.
Yeah, I think would have just said “someone who works at an AI capabilities company”. (I’m not trying to make this a big deal or controversy, I just find myself very irritated by how they get attention by antagonizing AI safety people in ways that seem bad faith to me.)

Sure, I don’t think there’s much problem with engaging with the point on substance, but I would avoid publicizing their brand.
