Will MacAskill außerordentlicher Professor für Philosophie und Forschungsstipendiat am Global Priorities Institute der Universität Oxford. Meine akademische Forschung konzentriert sich auf die Grundlagen des effektiven Altruismus – die Verwendung von Beweisen und Vernunft, um anderen mit unserer Zeit und unserem Geld so viel wie möglich zu helfen, mit besonderem Augenmerk darauf, wie man angesichts moralischer Unsicherheit handelt.
der Direktor der Forethought Foundation for Global Priorities Research, Mitbegründer und Präsident des Center for Effective Altruism (CEA) und ich halfen, die Bewegung für effektiven Altruismus zu schaffen. Durch Giving What We Can ermutigt CEA die Menschen, sich zu verpflichten, mindestens 10 % ihres Einkommens an die effektivsten Wohltätigkeitsorganisationen zu spenden. CEA betreibt auch über 100 lokale Gruppen für effektiven Altruismus, veranstaltet regelmäßig Konferenzen über effektiven Altruismus und forscht zu wirkungsvollen politischen und philanthropischen Möglichkeiten.
war außerdem Mitbegründer von 80.000 Stunden, einer von YCombinator unterstützten gemeinnützigen Organisation, die Forschung und Beratung darüber anbietet, wie Sie durch Ihre Karriere am besten etwas bewirken können.

We don't know how to weigh the interests of animals against humans, how strong our duties are to improve the lives of distant strangers, or how to think about the ethics of bringing new people into existence. But we still need to act. So how should we make decisions in the face of such uncertainty? Though economists and philosophers have extensively studied the issue of decision-making in the face of uncertainty about matters of fact, the question of decision-making given fundamental moral uncertainty has been neglected. Philosophers William MacAskill, Krister Bykvist, and Toby Ord try to fill this gap. Moral Uncertainty argues that there are distinctive norms that govern how one ought to make decisions. It defends an information-sensitive account of how to make such decisions by developing an analogy between moral uncertainty and social choice, arguing that the correct way to act in the face of moral uncertainty depends on whether the moral theories in which one has credence are merely ordinal, cardinal, or both cardinal and intertheoretically comparable. It tackles the problem of how to make intertheoretical comparisons, discussing potential solutions and the implications of their view for metaethics and practical ethics.
