SyllabuswithRohitWhat We Owe the Future by William MacAskill (Hindi/हिंदी में)Chapter 1: The Case for LongtermismMacAskill introduces the idea of longtermism, which means caring about the future as much as we care about the present. He argues that future people matter just like those alive today. Since the future is vast, small actions today can shape it in big ways.Chapter 2: A History of Moral ChangeThe author looks at how past societies changed their moral values over time. He gives examples like the fight against slavery and women’s rights. These changes show how small groups of people influenced history. If moral views changed before, they can change again.Chapter 3: Va...2025-02-2052 min

What things, in retrospect, should've been red flags about Sam or FTX? Was Sam's personality problematic? Did he ever really believe in EA principles? Does he lack empathy?

What's Left of Philosophy73 | Effective Altruism is Terrible w/ John DuncanIn this episode, we are joined by researcher and video essayist John Duncan (@Johntheduncan) to talk about the Effective Altruism movement and why it is so comprehensively awful. Granted, it’s got some pretty solid marketing: who could be against altruism, especially if it’s effective? But consider: from its individualism to its focus on cost-effectiveness and rates of return, from its idealist historiography to its refusal to cop to its obvious utilitarianism, from its naive empiricism to its wild-eyed obsession for preventing the Singularity—it’s really just the spontaneous ideology of 21st century capitalism cosplaying as ethics.

Wild with Sarah WilsonWILLIAM MACASKILL: On “longtermism” and moral responsibilityOur existential risk – the probability that we could wipe ourselves out due to AI, bio-engineering, nuclear war, climate change, etc. in the next 100 years – currently sits at 1 in 6. Let that sink in! Would you get on a plane if there was a 17% chance it would crash? Would you do everything you could to prevent a calamity if you were presented with those odds? My chat today covers a wild idea that could – and should - better our chances of existing as a species…and lead to a human flourishing I struggle to even imagine. Longtermism argues that priori...2022-08-1751 min

Mere Mortals Book ReviewsDoing Good Better (William MacAskill) - Book ReviewHow can we use our resources to help others the most? William MacAskill, one of the cofounders of the Effective Altruism movement tries to answer this question in his book 'Doing Good Better'. Effective altruism essentially tries to provide guidelines for what an individual can do to have the maximum impact of 'good' in their lifetime. The book is roughly split into two sections; the theory and the implementation. The theoretical side addresses questions related to measurement of charities and ways to ensure that good intentions have good outcomes. The practical implementation addresses whether it is better to donate directly...2021-02-1321 min

How do we assign credences to ethical (as opposed to empirical) claims? Why has effective altruism become so popular, so fast, yet at the same time seem off-putting to many people?
