> they asked: who on earth are Tasha McCauley and Helen Toner?

As a prominent researcher in AI safety (I discovered prompt injection) I should explain that Helen Toner is a big name in the AI safety community - she’s one of the top 20 most respected people in our community, like Rohin Shah.

The “who on earth” question is a good question about Tasha. But grouping Helen in with Tasha is just sexist. By analogy, Tasha is like Kimbal Musk, whereas Helen is like Tom Mueller.

Tasha seems unqualified but Helen is extremely qualified. Grouping them together is sexist and wrong.

I'm not sure what you are referring to with "AI safety community". Her background isn't exactly a strong "AI safety" either before joining the board if you read her CV. I don't see there sexism asking these questions.
