Is EA leadership proposing spending all charitable donations on AI risk?

It doesn't look like there is "leadership" but a number of people openly say so, including in the article.

see the last survey: http://effective-altruism.com/ea/zw/the_2015_survey_of_effective_altruists_results/ … tl;dr most popular cause is poverty, top charities are AMF/SCI/GD

there *is* a small bias favoring AI risk, but articles like the vox one make it seem like it's a majority

it's talking about the people who believe it, many of whom have lots of $

vocal faction can still dominate discussions and make more nuanced discussions difficult.
