Well is it effective? There are a lot of problems that exist right now that could be meaningfully worked on with any amount of money at all.
Not that all organizations need to work on immediate practical problems. But I think all organizations that are named things like "effective altruism" should.
And do they work against any of the actual current problems with applied "AI?" Or is it all just singularitarianist eschatology still?

EA basically splits into extremely hard-nosed short term projects and much riskier, but potentially extremely valuable projects guaranteeing the long term future of humanity. This is a consequence of those extremes being the most neglected.
