I have always been extremely curious about this. Do people really sacrifice their lifes or is it largely just empty talk?
It seems like nobody who wouldn't do anything else anyway is doing something. I mean, I don't think Eliezer Yudkowsky or Luke Muehlhauser would lead significantly different lifes if there were no existential risks. They are just the kind of people who enjoy doing what they do.
Are there people who'd rather play games all day but sacrifice their lifes to solve friendly AI?
I'm too irreparably lazy to actually change my life but my charitable donations are definitely affected by believing in FAI.
