The centre for effective altruism puts most of its efforts into mitigating the risks of super intelligent AI doesn't it?

Click "Find a charity to donate to", which links you here: https://www.givingwhatwecan.org/best-charities-to-donate-to-2026 https://www.givingwhatwecan.org/best-charities-to-donate-to-... Step 3. Read the list of cause areas Here's a preview since apparently there are hordes of overconfident people too "busy" to follow simple steps like these: 3 cause areas: Global health & Wellbeing, Animal Welfare, Global Catastrophic Risk Global Health: * Malaria * Malaria * Vitamin A for children * Vaccines for children * GiveWell, an aggregator for charities similar to the prior 4 Animal Welfare: * Fund aggregators to increase animal wellbeing by the dozens, hundreds, or thousands, or millions of living creatures' suffering Global Catastrophic Risk: * Research on AI risk, bioengineering risk, and nuclear risk – all of which AI is not only listed last, but doesn't even have its own dedicated page. It's lumped in with a set of other things that many people believe are long-term risks rather than immediate term massive problems, like childhood vaccinations, malaria, or industrial animal abuse. Hope that helps!
