This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.
I request removing the description "longtermist philosophy" from this page, as it is inaccurate. The Future of Life institute is not guided by a longtermist philosophy.
Source: Here is the Future of Life Institute's Director of Policy on Twitter saying "I do want to clarify that @FLIxrisk is not a longtermist organisation." https://twitter.com/MarkBrakel/status/1641089285167144960
COI: I work for the Future of Life Institute.

There are two sources used to support the assertion FoLI has a longtermist philosophy. The first uses the term "longterm" but it has nothing to do with the the specific philosophy in question (from what I can see), nor does the source call FoLI a longermist organization. The second source says some of the initial wealthy funders of FoLI hold/held a longtermist philosophy, but this doesn't mean FoLI itself does. As such I agree to remove it, particularly in light of the Dir. of Policy directly asserting their position is not longtermist. -- GreenC01:31, 13 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
