Alex Bores is someone I’m recommending as the number one place to donate to rn, to convert dollars to p doom reduction.
He’s a New York elected representative, author of the RAISE Act and another AI Safety bill.
Right now, seems to be the most competent person in the world at getting AI Safety bills made and passed.
A Super PAC sponsored in part by Palantir, where he used to work, is currently running attack ads against him.
Bernie himself is already quite popular and doesnt need that much help, imo—what is needed though, is to have other people be supported so that he’s not just one weirdo, but there’s an actual large scale movement with momentum, that will win the midterm elections.
This also involves helping make sure that the mid term elections actually happen and are fair and democratic.
This doesn’t answer my question at all. We seek leverage, right? Ways to make a given dollar go much further towards (e.g.) doom reduction? Then why isn’t there already an initiative for taking a shockingly large, surprisingly bipartisan, not actually that unsuccessful movement with good (received) AI takes, and funding and activating it some?
No one’s done it yet. ControlAI is trying a bit. I plan to as well. And couple other orgs are trying a little, but no one really hard yet. Could make guessed as to why, but would be mostly speculation.
