If you're interested, you should read GiveWell's detailed analysis of why it's reasonable to believe this (i.e. the efficacy of the charity to date, whether additional money will be spent with similar efficacy, etc.) and really form an opinion for yourself about whether it's true. Then, act on that opinion.
Very cool. Thank you for that. I quite enjoy considering these.
Interestingly, offering myself a choice between an arbitrary human life and a nice meal, I find myself choosing the meal. So I value the arbitrary human life at under a hundred dollars.
Just curious to me. I would have expected to have picked a higher valuation.
