first funding, then talent, then PR, and now this.

how much juice will OpenAI squeeze out of EA?

I don't fit a typical EA but I've managed to get things done by being "Entrepreneurial" and focussing on neglected areas.

Find things that are important, neglected and where you have a comparative advantage.

EAs overrate smartness in a world that prioritises getting shit done quickly. Being the 5th commenter on a google doc is not a path to impact. Create something. Bring a thing into the world people need but noone is doing.

I'm not sure of an org that deals with ultra-high net worth individuals (longview?), but someone should reach out to Bryan Johnson. I think he could be persuaded to invest in AI Safety (skip to 1:07:15)

This is good feedback! I'll make it clearer that this is something to consider, not to do without consideration 👍

I suppose I consider this a test :) 

(obviously I don't mind my ideas not being refined before publishing)

Only done it once, didn't have it available. But believe you me, the day will come where I have an idea you like. You just wait.

I've not done it before, but if I was hiring and a strong candidate asked me to do it, I would!

Interesting. So you're saying you don't think it is true that you could ask your next prospective employer to do a task for you as part of the interview process? 

"employers have more power than employees" - I think what this is revealing is that I'm operating from a position of extreme priviledge, as I don't feel this way at all.
