Amazing post! Gonna be referencing this a lot when I see infighting in various other movements

Might be time to update the "funds committed" table in this blog post: https://80000hours.org/2021/07/effective-altruism-growing/#how-many-funds-are-committed-to-effective-altruism

Meta is also down a lot (ergo Dustin ergo Open Phil)

It's way too early to know with confidence, but at a first pass GV/OpenPhil is down to $5.2B (90% of $5.8B), and FTX team down to maybe double Sam's estimated 1B? Other EA crypto donors also down to maybe sub-$1B? So the total wealth could be down by about 70%. But it's also possible there have been gains that partially offset the losses.

Great list!

Probably an important skillset that's missing is working with cloud computing services, which you may need if you want to train models that require more resources than what your local machine/Google Colab provides

Thanks! Forgot about cloud computing, added a couple of courses to the Additional Resources of Level 4: Deep Learning.

In that case that our situation changes in the future, how can we update our answers?
