About Scott Farquhar
On March 1, 2026, Scott Farquhar participated in an Ask Me Anything session for Pledge 1% members in Australia. During the session, he stated that the Pledge 1% program has facilitated approximately $3 billion in donations or pledges over 10 years, which he described as "about a million dollars a day." He also discussed the accessibility of AI, saying that large language models are "one of the most accessible things out there" and can often be used for free. Farquhar commented on the capital gains tax discount for housing in Australia, noting that "there's plenty of people in Australia that have made their money literally just buying houses over the years." He also expressed a view that AI will be "pretty disruptive to what value and where we as humans create value in the future," comparing future perceptions of call center work to how people now view manual field labor. Farquhar encouraged companies to take the Pledge 1% commitment, stating that giving products away free to not-for-profits "is actually great business sense" because it exposes professionals to the products in a volunteer context. He also noted a distinction in Australia between not-for-profit organizations and those with tax-deductible status, saying that the latter requires a separate application process.
