An Essential Watch: ted.com/talks/hannah_r…
My @TEDTalks is now online. I argue that we have the opportunity to build a world where we can all live well, and tackle our environmental problems at the same time. This is possible, but not inevitable. We have to push to make that a reality. ted.com/talks/hannah_r…
A large number of the biggest names in AI just released a statement saying: “Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority.” Here is the statement and the full list of signatories: safe.ai/statement-on-a…

When talking about things like GDP per capita, CO2 emissions, the share of people connected to the Internet, or banana consumption, what's the word that best describes all of these things?
Drink diet. I’ve never thought “drink water only” is reasonable advice, because water is boring and soda is not. Calorie-free sweeteners are a safe and reasonable substitution.

Onshore wind farms are popular in the UK. Most people support building more of them. This is true across political lines. Data from YouGov: yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…
If you live on more than $30 a day, you are part of the richest 15% of the world. 👇This chart shows the global income distribution. from my @OurWorldInData article on global inequality: ourworldindata.org/global-economi…
Some people are asking what the global median income is. According to the same source it is $7.56 per day. This means that half the world lives on less than that. And some are asking about mean and median incomes in particular countries. Here it is: ourworldindata.org/grapher/mean-v…
I rarely hear anything about acid rain these days. But it was once the environmental issue of-the-day. In the latest issue of @WorksInProgMag, I look at how we stopped it: worksinprogress.co/issue/the-end-…
Some statistics are worth knowing by heart: The average – mean – income in the world per person is $18 per day. This is adjusted for differences in price levels. It means that if incomes could get perfectly equally distributed in the world all of us would live on $18 per day.
A majority (55%) of Americans are now worried at least somewhat that AI could one day pose a risk to the human race’s existence. Every 4th person is very worried. [source monmouth.edu/polling-instit…]
There is a persistent myth of "the happy poor". It's just that: a myth. While happiness and life satisfaction are of course driven by many other things as well, people in poor countries are on average much more unhappy. Economic growth matters. ourworldindata.org/grapher/gdp-vs…
A visualization of today's global inequality: The average income in the Netherlands is 70-times higher than in Burundi (differences in prices are taken into account). And compared with the Netherlands a mother in Burundi is 450-times more likely to die during child birth.

@MaxCRoser I made the case to my business partners; Our World in Data can expect a modest donation from my company this year. We've lumped you into our "adavcing knowledge" basket alongside Wikipedia, open source GIS, and various citizen science endeavors. Keep up the excellent work!
@MaxCRoser @hausfath Just donated--you guys are doing a great thing. Frankly, though, Oxford should be stepping up and supporting you fully. You're doing what universities should be about.
Excited to be starting on a new project this week – focused on clean energy & dismantling delays in tackling climate change ☀️💨 I’ll be working on that in addition to my full-time roles, so I'll be away from here for a bit. See you on the other side! Keep decarbonising!
@hankgreen GGG was in Vancouver covering TED this year and I can't tell you how many times I was in an interview with another speaker and they would tell me their favorite TED Talk so far had been Hannah's! Made me so happy.
@_HannahRitchie @TEDTalks I am very excited about this! What an amazing title.
I was on the @80000Hours podcast talking about a range of topics (mostly on the environment). Air pollution, crop yields, ozone layer, biodiversity, reasons to be optimistic, and imposter syndrome. 80000hours.org/podcast/episod…
*Longer runways*. Once things have fully settled down after the FTX fallout, I hope we all can agree that, as a norm, established projects should always have 1-2 years of runway
Apparently it's taking 5+ months to get an EA Infrastructure grant at the moment, wtf are they doing?? Someone else was talking about this like it was a known issue as well - what's going on?
Nate Silver, who announced recently he's leaving FiveThirtyEight, is writing a new book about, among other things, EA, x-risk, and AI. He also hints that he intends to write more about these topics in the future. natesilver.substack.com/p/some-persona…
@peterhartree @redouad Not claimed as definitive evidence, but suggestive Disagree that we should split "I am tired" Considering them Bostrom-critical would imply 70% of voters critical after excluding none / view results
@Chris_topian @redouad Maybe the EA Forum team will release info about the voting trends. I’ve no view on whether that’d be a good idea, all things considered, but it’s the evidence I’d find most informative.
To those, like me, who are seriously angered by Bostrom and much of the response: what now? I find it repugnant and I don’t want any association with it. I want anyone who might feel hurt by it to see that I and others reject it.
@redouad @max_goerlitz @NathanpmYoung The global dev part of the EA community has been very valuable for me. I’d like that to continue to exist. But I don’t want to be associated w Bostrom or his defenders. I think some longtermist work is valuable, but the association is only negative for global dev EA
If EA splinters into multiple communities with their own events, norms and vibes that will be:
If you’re feeling dispirited about Bostrom email discussions. I wanted to share that about a dozen folks (mostly working in EA orgs) DMd me supportively about my thread. I don’t think forum comments by volume / karma always reflects the views of many in EA leadership positions.
