Hi Caleb, I’m Alvaro Cuba, the Development Director at PauseAI US (one of 3 employees, the others being Holly and Felix de Simone), and I would be happy to speak with you if you’re considering a donation.
I agree with your articulation of what Holly’s twitter presence is doing, seriously confronting people with our belief that advancing AI capabilities is personally and morally wrong. Even if you don’t end up agreeing with it, I think absent perspectives like hers, most of what people receive on Twitter when they join AI companies is unadulterated praise. Pushing that more toward skepticism has value. In addition to twitter, we do a lot of volunteer group, congressional meeting, and media programming on what has been described as a “shoestring budget.” Below is a snapshot update from April, and please feel free to reach out here or at alvaro@pauseai-us.org

Remember, PauseAI US is distinct from PauseAI Global! That’s why they fundraise on PauseAI Global posts...wait, I think I missed something
