    TLDR

    Timnit Gebru posted that Jaan Tallinn, a founder of the Future of Life Institute, funds Anthropic, OpenAI and DeepMind while promoting longtermism and effective altruism. She also shared an image of a 2015 all-male panel moderated by Max Tegmark and asked viewers to identify eugenicists and race scientists among participants. Gebru linked to a Current Affairs article that describes longtermism as a secular religion advancing elite preferences under the banner of existential risk. The posts quote the article title and subtitle directly.

    @timnitGebruBut you can get the gist here too. One of those people here is Jaan Taallinn, another founder of Tegmark's Future of Life Institute, one of the biggest funders of Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepMind etc, and of course, a longtermist and effective altruist. https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/2021/07/the-dangerous-ideas-of-longtermism-and-existential-risk
