单集文稿 ...

  • I have the pleasure of interviewing Finn Morehouse,

  • who is a research scholar at the Oxford University's Future of Humanity Institute.

  • And he's also an assistant to Toby Ord.

  • And also the host of the Hear This Idea podcast.

  • Finn, I know you've got a ton of other projects under your belt.

  • So do you want to talk about all the different things you're working on and how you got into EA and this kind of research?

  • I think you nailed the broad strokes there.

  • I think, yeah, I've kind of failed to.

  • specialized in a particular thing.

  • And so I found myself just dabbling in projects that seem interesting to me,

  • trying to help get some projects off the ground and just doing research on,

  • you know, things that seem maybe underrated.

  • I probably won't bore you with the list of things.

  • And then, yeah, how'd I get into EA?

  • Actually, also a fairly boring story, unfortunately.

  • I really loved philosophy.

  • I really loved kind of pestering people by asking them all these questions,

  • you know, why you're not.

  • while you're still eating meat, Rev's kind of Peter Singer and Will MacAskill,

  • and I realized I just wasn't actually living these things out myself.
