That's really not true. There's a huge overlap in these groups, but the top EA charities are not shoveling all their money at AI alignment orgs... even if one can argue that they should.

Arguing that AI safety is needed only demonstrates that it's altruistic, but you have a lot farther to go if you want to say funding research in this decade can be effective.
