Vitalik Buterin’s SHIB Gift Backfires? Warns Of “Authoritarian” AI Push From A Nonprofit

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has publicly distanced himself from the Future of Life Institute (FLI), an AI-safety nonprofit he supported in 2021 with a substantial SHIB token donation. Buterin clarified that FLI initially presented a broad roadmap focused on reducing existential risks from AI, bio, and nuclear threats with a pro-science, pro-peace approach. However, he now criticizes the organization for pivoting toward large-scale political advocacy, which he views as authoritarian and fragile. Buterin expressed concern that FLI’s current approach—such as pushing for restrictive AI safeguards and potential open-source bans—could backfire and lead to centralized control. Despite disagreements, he acknowledged alignment with FLI’s recent "Pro-human AI declaration." The situation highlights broader concerns about crypto-funded philanthropy, transparency, and the unintended consequences of large donations influencing AI governance.
