AI models today have a 50% chance of successfully completing a task that would take an expert human one hour. Seven months ago, that number was roughly 30 minutes — and seven months before that, 15 minutes.These are substantial, multi-step tasks requiring sustained focus: building web applications, conducting machine learning research, or solving complex programming challenges.Today's guest, Beth Barnes, is CEO of METR (Model Evaluation & Threat Research) — the leading organisation measuring these capabilities.These highlights are from episode #217 of The 80,000 Hours Podcast: Beth Barnes on the most important graph in AI right now — and the 7-month rule that governs its progress, and include:Can we see AI scheming in the chain of thought? (00:00:34)We have to test model honesty even before they're used inside AI companies (00:05:48)It's essential to thoroughly test relevant real-world tasks (00:10:13)Recursively self-improving AI might even be here in two years — which is alarming (00:16:09)Do we need external auditors doing AI safety tests, not just the companies themselves? (00:21:55)A case against safety-focused people working at frontier AI companies (00:29:30)Open-weighting models is often good, and Beth has changed her attitude about it (00:34:57)These aren't necessarily the most important or even most entertaining parts of the interview — so if you enjoy this, we strongly recommend checking out the full episode!And if you're finding these highlights episodes valuable, please let us know by emailing podcast@80000hours.org.Highlights put together by Ben Cordell, Milo McGuire, and Dominic Armstrong

Crosspost from my blog. I just got back from Effective Altruism Global London—a conference that brought together lots of different people trying to do good with their money and careers. It was an inspiring experience. When you write about factory farming, insect suffering, global poverty, and the torment of shrimp, it can, as I've mentioned before, feel like screaming into the void. When you try to explain why it's important that we don't torture insects by the trillions in insect farms, most people look at you like you've grown a third head (after the second head that they look at you like you've grown when you started talking about shrimp welfare). But at effective altruism conferences, people actually care. They're not indifferent to most of the world's suffering. They don't think I'm crazy!

The meat industry and its defenders promise ethical consumption and sustainable farming, but animal agriculture fuels ecological destruction, entrenches human supremacy, and masks cruelty with comforting myths. John Sanbonmatsu, philosopher and author of The Omnivore's Deception, shatters the myths of “humane meat” and the 'naturalness' of eating meat, and explains why abolishing the animal economy is essential to living an ethical human life. Highlights include:  Why growing up as the child of a Jewish mother and Japanese-American father in the U.S. sensitized John to bullying and injustice - against both human and nonhuman animals; Why the origins of human domination over animals are rooted in patriarchy and an ancient human estrangement from animals, and reinforced today by a toxic nexus of masculinity, human supremacy, neoliberal capitalism, and pronatalism; Why focusing only on factory farming misses the fundamental problem of human domination of animals and the planet - and how books like Michael Pollan's The Omnivore's Dilemma and the new American pastoral ethos perpetuate myths of so-called ethical meat while attacking the animal rights movement; Why justifying meat-eating as “natural” is ethically bankrupt - on par with past appeals to nature to justify slavery or denying women's rights - and how vegans and vegetarians provoke defensive ridicule because they reveal uncomfortable truths; Why the flood of scientific studies on animal cognition and emotion hasn't changed behavior - and how cultural fascination with AI and plant consciousness distracts from our brutal treatment of fully sentient animals; Why bad faith - our self-deception about how we treat animals - is the most destructive force preventing moral progress, and why what we're doing to animals deserves to be called 'evil'; How empathy, an evolved trait we share with animals and desperately need to nurture, is being eroded by increasing social disconnection and anti-empathy tech bro ideologies; Why lab meat, also known as 'clean meat', is not the solution to speciesism and human supremacism and consuming our way to animal liberation is a delusion; Why the animal rights movement is being undermined by the money pouring into utilitarian effective altruism and “realistic” approaches - when true compassion demands not animal welfarism, but the abolition of animal exploitation and a direct challenge to the entrenched power structures that prevent moral progress.

The podcast explores needed narrative, behavioral, and system shifts for recreating human life in balance with all life on Earth. With expert guests from wide-ranging disciplines, we examine the forces underlying overshoot: from patriarchal pronatalism that is fueling overpopulation, to growth-biased economic systems that lead to consumerism and social injustice, to the dominant worldview of human supremacy that subjugates animals and nature. Our vision of shrinking toward abundance inspires us to seek pathways of transformation that go beyond technological fixes toward a new humanity that honors our interconnectedness with all beings.  Hosted by Nandita Bajaj and Alan Ware.

What if doing the most good was simpler—and more within reach—than you ever imagined? In this powerful episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius is joined by world-renowned moral philosopher Peter Singer for a conversation that will challenge how you think about ethics, generosity, and your role in making the world better. Peter, best known for his groundbreaking work “The Life You Can Save,” shares thought-provoking insights on effective altruism, the moral obligations of those living in affluence, and how small, intentional actions can create ripple effects of real change. From fighting global poverty to advocating for animal rights, Peter's work has inspired millions to rethink their impact—and today, he might just do the same for you. In this episode, Darius and Peter will discuss: (00:00) Introduction to Effective Altruism (06:11) Understanding Effective Altruism (11:57) The Life You Can Save: A Nonprofit Overview (18:05) Philanthropy and Meaning in Life (23:55) Profit for Good: Business and Altruism (24:54) Profit for Good Conference: A New Business Paradigm (30:01) The Role of Bioethics in Modern Society (37:32) Activism and Personal Motivation in Ethical Issues (38:35) Reflections on Global Issues: Past and Present (41:42) Making a Difference: Individual Impact and Career Choices (47:07) Overcoming Barriers to Greatness Peter Singer is an Australian moral philosopher known for his work in applied ethics from a utilitarian perspective. He is Emeritus Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University and author of Animal Liberation and the influential essay “Famine, Affluence, and Morality.” Singer has shifted from preference to hedonistic utilitarianism over his career. He founded Monash University's Centre for Human Bioethics, co-founded Animals Australia, and established the nonprofit The Life You Can Save. Recognized as Australian Humanist of the Year in 2004, he is considered one of Australia's most influential public intellectuals.

Dutch historian and author Rutger Bregman wants to start a new brain drain -- starve industries like finance and consulting from the world's genius by redirecting Harvard grads into "good work." His new book is Moral Ambition, and in it he pleads with those who have a bit of talent, a bit of smarts, to use it to solve social problems rather than create them. Jessa and Nico go through the recent history of Elites Solving Problems, from Effective Altruism to Christian Missionaries to the Nonprofit Grift. But also ask, why does everyone start squirming when you suggest that perhaps you should actually live by those lofty ideals you have?

When you have a system where ministers almost never understand their portfolios, civil servants change jobs every few months, and MPs don't grasp parliamentary procedure even after decades in office — is the problem the people, or the structure they work in?Political journalist Ian Dunt studies the systemic reasons governments succeed and fail. And in his book How Westminster Works …and Why It Doesn't, he argues that Britain's government dysfunction and multi-decade failure to solve its key problems stems primarily from bad incentives and bad processes.These highlights are from episode #216 of The 80,000 Hours Podcast: Ian Dunt on why governments in Britain and elsewhere can't get anything done – and how to fix it, and include:Rob's intro (00:00:00)The UK is governed from a tiny cramped house (00:00:08)Replacing political distractions with departmental organisation (00:02:58)The profoundly dangerous development of "delegated legislation" (00:06:42)Do more independent-minded legislatures actually lead to better outcomes? (00:09:08)MPs waste much of their time helping constituents with random complaints (00:12:50)How to keep expert civil servants (00:15:44)Unlikely heroes in the House of Lords (00:18:33)Proportional representation and other alternatives to first-past-the-post (00:22:02)These aren't necessarily the most important or even most entertaining parts of the interview — so if you enjoy this, we strongly recommend checking out the full episode!And if you're finding these highlights episodes valuable, please let us know by emailing podcast@80000hours.org.Highlights put together by Ben Cordell, Milo McGuire, and Dominic Armstrong

Full episode up on Patreon n this episode, philosophy professor and AI safety researcher Vincent Lê joins us to explore the strange philosophical roots of Effective Altruism, the Z1zians, and Silicon Valley's culture at large. Rather than rehashing the usual narratives around EA, E/Acc, and AI alignment, we dig into their shared intellectual DNA—from the cringeworthy utilitarianism of Peter Singer to the mimetic theories of René Girard, and even The Office as an unlikely ideological text.We also touch on the Westall UFO sighting and its eerie relevance, Franco "Bifo" Berardi's reflections on cognitive capitalism and collapse, the “infobrain,” the cult of rationalism, and the surreal logic of AI-driven extremism as LLM's talk like a therapist. Plus: exit strategies, neocameralist fantasy worlds, and the political theology behind technocratic acceleration.Subscribe to Vincent's blog here

Throughout history, technological revolutions have fundamentally shifted the balance of power in society. The Industrial Revolution created conditions where democracies could dominate for the first time — as nations needed educated, informed, and empowered citizens to deploy advanced technologies and remain competitive.Unfortunately, there's every reason to think artificial general intelligence (AGI) will reverse that trend.In a new paper, Tom Davidson — senior research fellow at the Forethought Centre for AI Strategy — argues that advanced AI systems will enable unprecedented power grabs by tiny groups of people, primarily by removing the need for other human beings to participate.These highlights are from episode #215 of The 80,000 Hours Podcast: Tom Davidson on how AI-enabled coups could allow a tiny group to seize power, and include:"No person rules alone" — except now they might (00:00:13)The 3 threat scenarios (00:06:17)Underpinning all 3 threats: Secret AI loyalties (00:10:15)Is this common sense or far-fetched? (00:13:46)How to automate a military coup (00:17:41)If you took over the US, could you take over the whole world? (00:22:44)Secret loyalties all the way down (00:26:27)Is it important to have more than one powerful AI country? (00:29:59)What transparency actually looks like (00:33:08)These aren't necessarily the most important or even most entertaining parts of the interview — so if you enjoy this, we strongly recommend checking out the full episode!And if you're finding these highlights episodes valuable, please let us know by emailing podcast@80000hours.org.Highlights put together by Ben Cordell, Milo McGuire, and Dominic Armstrong
