New blog post: The third wave of American philanthropy

Hundreds of billions of dollars in new philanthropic capital will soon become liquid. The OpenAI Foundation holds 26% of OpenAI, worth about $220B at today’s valuation. Anthropic’s seven co-founders have pledged to give away 80% of their wealth and have instituted the most aggressive donor matching program for employees in tech history.

How much does this all add up to? And how meaningful is that in the context of philanthropy today?

I was doing some simple napkin math to wrap my head around the scale of what’s coming, and radicalized myself in the process. I had dramatically underappreciated the scale of the philanthropic capital that’s about to become available and the corresponding gap in talent and organizations that will be needed to make the most of it.

This piece aims to directionally sketch the scale of what’s coming, the gap in operational capacity needed to absorb it, and what we can do to fill it.

Wright’s vision for the island city was a “Jules Verne-esque design… resolutely futuristic… apartments for 7,500 residents, rising like a stack of offset, alternating dishes. Above these dwelling floors, and separated by sundecks, would be a crescent of seven corrugated, candlestick-shaped towers containing more apartments and a 500-room hotel.” At the center of it all, Wright placed “a huge globe, seemingly pockmarked by eons of meteor collisions, and held aloft by plastic canopies protecting the plazas below.”

Pretty cool analysis of AI use on Substack by @TaylorLorenz

[Tamara Winter @tamarawinter]

I loved this profile; @benjwallace captured @dwarkesh_sp brilliantly.

I think as A.I. gets better and easier to use than ever, it will become really clear who actually does the reading. If Dwarkesh has any superpower, it’s that.

[Patrick OShaughnessy @patrick_oshag]

This is a great profile of @dwarkesh_sp

He is excellent at what he does. One of the few podcasts I listen to virtually every episode, knowing it’ll be deep, unique, and impeccably well researched.

Good person, doing great work. Have a read:

@josephcohen looove; reminiscent of Honda's first Super Cub ads (but not at all derivative!)

@max_spero_ @NatPurser Insane torching of goodwill…and for what exactly

[Tamara Winter @tamarawinter]

@AdamMantine @mattyglesias More productive to think about the ways in which antisocial dog owners have degraded public spaces, especially in big cities. Dogs shouldn't be in e.g. grocery stores or restaurants, they shouldn't generally be off-leash, and people are sick of seeing dog poop all over the place

@umbersorrow Now I want to go through more of our books to see, but here’s @_brianpotter, whose first acknowledgement was to his wife ❣️

[Tamara Winter @tamarawinter]

@helendewitt as it should be!! so happy for you

[Tamara Winter @tamarawinter]

@yb_effect @tylercowen @AvitalBalwit I think about this constantly! I was already an analog person but have become even more so in the last two years.

[Tamara Winter @tamarawinter]

Years ago @tylercowen and @AvitalBalwit wrote that AI increases the value of secrets.

It clearly also increases the value of *print*. (Regardless, the Internet Archive is an invaluable resource and it would be horrible to lose or neuter it.)

[WIRED @WIRED]

As major news outlets cut off the Wayback Machine, journalists and advocacy groups are rallying to protect the Internet Archive’s vast collection of web pages. https://t.co/XWEZr6Q0DF
