How can we do the most good with our careers, money and lives? And what are the things that we can do right now, to positively impact future generations to come? This is the mission of the Effective Altruism (EA) movement co-founded by Will McAskill, Associate Professor in Philosophy at the University of Oxford and co-founder of nonprofits Giving What We Can, the Centre for Effective Altruism, and Y Combinator-backed 80,000 Hour. In the conversation, me and Will talk about the fundamentals of EA, his brand new book 'What We Owe The Future', the idea of 'longtermism', the most pressing existential threats humanity is facing and what we can do about them, why giving away your income will make you happier, why your career choice is the biggest choice you’ll make in your life and much more. 00:00 Intro 02:30 Will's Backstory 07:57 What does it mean to be an academic philosopher? 15:28 Why donations improve our wellbeing 20:49 Valuing the lives of people we don't know 26:12 What the world is over-prioritising and under-prioritising 36:25 Let's talk about feelings 41:07 Creating altruistic rules for yourself 47:54 Your career is one of the biggest decisions you'll make 53:05 The balance of selfish desires vs what the world needs 55:30 Why nonprofits sponsor podcasts 59:27 Giving What We Can 01:06:48 What resources would you recommend 01:10:47 Longtermism and Will's new book: What We Owe The Future 01:29:43 How worried should we be about engineered viruses 01:37:39 What are your concerns about nuclear weapons 01:45:31 Value Lock-in 01:51:15 Artificial General Intelligence 02:00:00 What are the starting points for someone learning more 02:06:36 How can you be so cheerful 02:09:37 What your day-to-day look like 02:16:52 Slavery 02:18:12 Climate change and clean energy 02:24:55 Ali's book 02:30:49 Will's goal for his book 02:33:35 Will's productivity advice 02:45:00 Scaling Ali's business 02:52:13 Final ask for the audience 🔗 CONNECT WITH WILL 📕Get 50% off Will's new book 'What We Owe The Future' with the code ALI50 👉https://bookshop.org/books/what-we-ow... 🐦 Twitter -   / willmacaskill   💻 Website - https://www.williammacaskill.com/ 🔗 CONNECT WITH ALI 🎥 YouTube Channel -    / aliabdaal   🐦 Twitter -   / aliabdaal   📸 Instagram -   / aliabdaal   💻 Website - https://aliabdaal.com 👥 Linkedin -   / ali-abdaal   📚 RESOURCES MENTIONED Giving What We Can - https://www.givingwhatwecan.org/ 80000 Hours - https://80000hours.org/ Centre For Effective Altruism - https://www.centreforeffectivealtruis...
