Resolves to the result of a poll I'll post on manifold when the market closes (jan 25 2025). YES for Emmett Shear, NO for Sam Altman, 50% for "equally concerned".
The market's prompted by a twitter interaction that surprised me:

More details:
The poll question will be "Emmett Shear VS Sam Altman: Who is more concerned about x-risk?". The plan is 4 options, but since this is a year away I'm flexible to slight adjustments to the poll as long as it doesn't change the poll outcome:
- Sam Altman more concerned
- Emmett Shear more concerned
- Equally concerned
- See results
Resolves to the option with the most votes (excluding the last option).
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.
