I don't! I donate (lots of) money to GiveWell, and I credit EA members for convincing me to do that. The parts of EA that are functionally "hey donate money to effective charities" are good things that make the world better. I do think that it is dangerous to EA as a movement to be discolored by self-dealing AI longtermism.
