This is: Rethink Priorities' CEO announcement, published by Rethink Priorities on July 18, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Rethink Priorities (RP) is excited to announce that Marcus A. Davis is now RP's sole CEO. Former Co-CEO Peter Wildeford will remain at RP, focusing on projects in artificial intelligence. He will also continue his work as Chief Advisory Executive at the RP-sponsored think tank, the Institute for AI Policy and Strategy (IAPS). Since 2018, co-founders Marcus Davis and Peter Wildeford have served as Co-CEOs of RP. Their joint leadership has grown RP from a two-person research team into an international research organization with 60+ staff working around the world. Their guidance has helped expand RP's research areas to include animal welfare, global health and development, and artificial intelligence policy. The decision to transition to this new leadership structure comes after discussions around the opportunities for RP's future growth, Peter's expertise and interests, and developments in the artificial intelligence landscape. For further information, please refer to RP's website. Rethink Priorities is a think-and-do tank dedicated to informing decisions made by high-impact organizations and funders across various cause areas.
