The Singularity Institute would benefit from having a team of domain-specific advisors on hand. If you'd like to help the Singularity Institute pursue its mission more efficiently, please sign up to be a Singularity Institute advisor!
If you sign up, we will occasionally ask you questions. You may be able to answer our questions or at least point us in the right direction. We may also request to schedule a quick chat with you.
Domains of expertise we especially need:
- Nearly all subfields of economics, maths, computer science & AI, statistics, cognitive science, physics, biology, and naturalistic philosophy.
- U.S. & California law
- Non-profit development and tax compliance
- Marketing & social media
- U.S. government and military processes (lobbying, security, infrastructure, etc.)
- Computer security
- Large-scale logistics
- Event planning
- Executive coaching/training
- Motivational speaking, social skills training
- Publishing
- Running workshops and meetups
- Nuclear security, bio-security, disease control
Excellent.
While I applaud the effort, I suspect that simply hiring a professional or otherwise reaching outside of current LW readership would be more effective.
Perhaps a professional who was unaware of SIAI's need will announce themselves. No harm in asking.
