Totally agree with this, maybe it’s included in the additional transparency mentioned.

Additionally I have noticed that hive have sponsored a lot of events. How much of your budget does this take up? Do you imagine continuing to sponsor as many events in future?

Question on this, I think it wasn’t very clear what is the actual total budget for Hive for 2025? how much is already covered? Do you have any outstanding grants on the table?

How do you currently value your cost-effectiveness on how much $ you are adding to the movement vs. spending.

Can you write some more about HIP's impact before 2024? How many pledges and career transitions have you had since starting HIP?

“ because of how small we are” Pretty sure he’s already including himself in the list!

it’s crazy how many absolute pioneers are omitted here and the fact it’s hard for James to list them as someone hosting a podcast interviewing so many talented people and as a donor should be far more concerning to us.

What a great post, thank you so much for doing this important work. 

I'm interested to know why you chose to "still think ACE’s funds and recommendations are worth considering for impact-focused donors and we will continue to host them on the GWWC donation platform" and later say "ACE’s charity evaluation process does not currently measure marginal cost-effectiveness to a sufficient extent for us to rely directly on the resulting charity recommendations". I understand that there may be hope for the future but right now if the role of EA is to nudge people to the opportunities that have the highest marginal impact per dollar, shouldn't GWWC focus exclusively on EAWF, or are you saying there is something lacking in the analysis here?

Would appreciate some clarification

I feel similarly confused with this somewhat arbitrary categorisation which also seems heavily flawed. 

CE is in it's nature a narrow career focus, it focuses just on entrepreneurs in the neartermist space and is highly biased to thinking this is the most impactful career someone can do, whilst for many starting a new charity would not be. It seems a large stretch to put CE in this category and also doesnt seem to be where CE focuses its time and energy. HIP also focuses just on mid-career professionals but it's hard to know what they are doing as they seem to change what they are doing and their target audience relatively often. 

80,000 hours, Probably Good and Animal Advocacy Careers seem broader in their target audience and seem like the most natural fit for being the most impactful career community. They also advise people on how they can do the most effective thing although obviously, they all have their own biases based on their cause prioritisation.
