It was lit indeed! Great conversation and very good questions. Two small points of feedback: the editing is a bit choppy (it's OK to have some natural breaks in there) and you don't need to confirm as often with "yeh", "m hm", etc. Those are details though and I really appreciate you creating and sharing this content!
If you want to find that feeling, don't read or watch stuff, just GO!! Go visit some of these places and meet these people and then see how you feel :)
Super interesting conversation, especially as I begin to explore EA more so a massive thanks for releasing this. I do however believe that the video cuts and constant “yep”s and “okay”s distract the listeners from the conversation. It seems like other top podcasters make a concerted effort to not do this for the same reason. Not sure if your future episodes have the same issue but massively thankful for this episode either way. Cheers Ali!
Honestly this is the most impactful talk you've ever given on the podcast. It probably changed someone's career trajectory and approach to living, it damn sure changed mine.
Coming to this interview from the end of '23, it's crazy to remember how highly people thought of SBF. Great content, but what a wild change in public perspective of a very high-profile EA dude.
there's no "taking a hit" to one's salary when donating. there is just an additional way of spending the money earned. if one takes a hit in donating, one also takes a hit when buying groceries or going out to see a film, etc. I imagine one could also funnel potential donations into one's own charity so as to spend that money in precisely the way one sees as most impactful and most desirable to you as an individual.
Great convo, thanks for uploading it all. If you want to find that feeling, don't read or watch stuff, just GO!! Go visit some of these places and meet these people and then see how you feel :)
2nd comment on here I know - was pleasantly surprised to hear Will voice again on this weeks New Scientist podcast this week. Awesome that he’s getting the opportunity to spread his message out there as much as possible; I really hope so many people read this book.
Great interview Ali! Def reading his books now and looking into effective altruism and 80000 hours. Been thinking more and more about how I should spend a career as a physician giving back. Also Will brings up Wellbutrin (Bupropion), probably the best antidepressant I’ve found that works for most people, treatment for MDD, ADHD, BPD, SAD, smoking cessation as well as an adjunct for SSRI induced ED, works as a dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (DNRI?). Maybe a good start for the pill from Limitless? 😄
Well now we know how questionable this dude is under the surface. His defense of Sam Bankman Fried for way too long, revealed by a recent TIME article, is abhorrent.
Ali, this is a long episode, but simply just listening to it and skipping through some of it, it is marred by the way you keep saying: “yep” and the other acknowledging filler while Will is talking, which is the equivalent of “uh huh.” It stands out and is, for me, very distracting. And it sounds like you’re either bored, impatient, or just waiting to respond more substantially?
Radioactive waste is a terrible example, the volume of it is truly minimal despite its long lived nature. The majority of high grade "waste" is highly credible fuel for those future times and different reactor designs. Collecting it for now benefits future generations exactly because it is long lived but otherwise diffuse in the environment.
If you want to get rich, focus on creating value to the market, then the money itself will flow in, Value itself is the symbol of money you are making, a fellow creator,,,,
With due respect, 7 minutes in Professor Will ... God know how many times you adjusted your glasses vs Ali never touched his glasses. I hope Professor needs a new one , where it stays in place.
Interesting ideas here and some good food for thought. But jeez, the number of times the word like is used as filler. Please work on this! It’s very detracting from the message you are trying to spread.

Great interview Ali! I just didn't like the edition. I prefer a longer video but with not constant cutting. Keep on the good work!

Way too expensive for what it is.
This is going to be lit
I guess it is more appropriate to say "it was lit". Probably because you where there. I don't know man but i love the philosophy vibes.

One of the most important podcasts you've done Ali.
Highly recommend reading Will's first book 'Doing Good Better'.
Thanks for sharing!
How about he starts by returning all the money he stole?

Second this. Will is suerb. Doing Good Better is so enlightening.

I can listen to Will forever

Lol ftx dummy
You have the best interview with Will Macaskill, I watched other interviews of him and it wasn't as indepth & interesting as yours.
Holy crap! The timing is perfect! Thank you very very much!
Looking forward to a follow up.......
Truly inspiring, and definitely one of the best podcasts!
Really grateful for this podcast! This conversation helped me a lot 👐
Coming to this interview from the end of '23, it's crazy to remember how highly people thought of SBF. Great content, but what a wild change in public perspective of a very high-profile EA dude.
Thank you Will, Ali and behind the scenes related people, Raza :)
Oh this will be good I know it. Looking forward to this weeks gym sessions, listening my way through this each time I’m there 😄
Best podcast yet. Amazing listen.
William MacAskill, absolute legend. Thank you for this.
20 minutes in and loving it 🙌
HELL YEAH BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

This episode is excellent, Ali!
Congrats on reaching 100K subs 🎉
Will is 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely loved it. What a great conversation, very inspiring, I’m off to read his books now!

Hahaha I was with you up till the pram comment! Having a good one will save your wrists alone - more typing = more productivity lol
very nice
Listening from Nigeria though...
This is the most feel-bad of all the deep dive interviews.😵💫 I had to stop listening by 1:32 and it was getting depressing long before that.

You should vote
Does the editing seem a lot choppier than usual or is it just me
It appears to me that they are cutting every possible second to reduce the length of the vid
same here man, I also feel like they should keep it a bit raw to let us breath
Well now we know how questionable this dude is under the surface. His defense of Sam Bankman Fried for way too long, revealed by a recent TIME article, is abhorrent.
spotify link?
Interesting video, but cuts are terrible for me. No breathing time and it feels really unnatural to watch. I had to stop.
Well this podcast did not age well after the SBF stuff LMAO
Bloody hell... I don't think a title of a video has ever been more appropriate...
Could you reconsider the 'drink the cool aid' comments...
What is his net worth ?

When is the podcast with Iman?
Probably never. Idk I don't want to be pessimistic but i don't think iman would be interested to be on this podcast
@@AverageGuy6921 they already did the recording :)

Probably soon

This guy reminds me of myself when I was maybe 14 years old. I don't understand how the dude is 35 and still thinks this surface level.
With due respect, 7 minutes in Professor Will ... God know how many times you adjusted your glasses vs Ali never touched his glasses.
