Thank you for writing this. I think this really does make a difference for people's motivation and the vibe of the community.

This doesn't change your conclusions at all, but it's hard to count the Nonlinear Network donations without accidentally double counting because a lot of the largest donors are also on the platform.

The Nonlinear Network was designed to help increase funding diversification in the movement. 

It was also designed to be maximally low effort on both the funder and the applicant side. This is why we allow people to apply with any existing fundraising materials and there are very few required questions so if you've already fundraised, it should take you minutes to apply. 

It's not nearly enough to solve the whole problem, but it's low cost and high upside so good EV for most AI safety orgs

A couple of articles relevant to this topic:

• Parable of the Boy Who Cried 5% Chance of Wolf by me
• Against The Generalized Anti-Caution Argument by Scott Alexander

You mentioned looking for longtermist donation opportunities. One thing that might help is the Nonlinear Network, where donors can see a wide variety of AI safety donation opportunities, and also see expert reviewers ratings and comments. You can also see other donors' opinions and voting on various donation opportunities. This allows you to avoid the unilateralist curse and use elite common sense. 

Seems worth mentioning that if you're a funder, you can see tons of AI safety funding opportunities, sorted by votes, expert reviews, intervention type, and more, if you join the Nonlinear Network.

You could also consider joining Catalyze's seed funding network that donates to new AI safety orgs on their "demo days" after they've gone through the incubation program

Seems like a good place to remind people of the Nonlinear Network, where donors can see a ton of AI safety projects with room for funding, see what experts think of different applications, sort by votes and intervention, etc. 

Love it! 

I also really like reading mantras because it helps engage so many different parts of your brain, so helps you stay focused. 

Huzzah! 

I did the technical magic of turning something on the website off and on again and apparently that fixed it. 

Thanks for pointing that out! 

It was happening on my colleague's computer too, and we did something that fixed it on his end. Is it still happening on your computer? 

Regardless, it should always be fine if you type in www.nonlinear.org/network (for some reason, it wasn't liking it if you didn't write the "www" )
