Efficiency
How optimally a system uses resources by minimizing unused capacity, at the cost of flexibility and resilience.

Effectiveness
How well a system achieves its goals while maintaining reserve capacity for resilience, adaptation, and peak demands.

Highly efficient systems may be vulnerable to disruption, while effective systems maintain deliberate slack for robustness and responsiveness to changing conditions.

Oxford shuts down institute run by Elon Musk-backed philosopher

Oxford University this week shut down an academic institute run by one of Elon Musk’s favorite philosophers.
The 🔸Future of Humanity Institute, 🔸dedicated to the long-termism movement
and other Silicon Valley-endorsed ideas such as effective altruism,
closed this week after 19 years of operation.

Musk had donated £1m to the FIH in 2015 through a sister organization to research the threat of artificial intelligence.
He had also boosted the ideas of its leader for nearly a decade on X, formerly Twitter.

The center was run by
💥Nick Bostrom💥, a Swedish-born philosopher whose writings about the long-term 👉threat of AI replacing humanity
turned him into a celebrity figure among the tech elite and routinely landed him on lists of top global thinkers.

OpenAI chief executive Sam #Altman, Microsoft founder Bill #Gates and Tesla chief #Musk all wrote blurbs for his 2014 bestselling book #Superintelligence.
“Worth reading Superintelligence by Bostrom. We need to be super careful with AI. Potentially more dangerous than nukes,” Musk tweeted in 2014.

⭐#Bostrom resigned from Oxford following the institute’s closure. ⭐

The closure of Bostrom’s center is a 👍further blow to the "#effective #altruism" and #longtermism movements 👍that the philosopher has spent decades championing,
which in recent years have become mired in scandals related to #racism, #sexual #harassment and #financial #fraud.
Bostrom himself issued an apology last year after a decades-old email surfaced in which he claimed
“Blacks are more stupid than whites” and used the N-word.
