Bostrom quotes a colleague saying that a Fields medal indicates two things: that the recipient was capable of accomplishing something important, and that he didn't. Should potential Fields medalists move into AI safety research?
Why not actual fields medalists?
Tim Ferris lays out a guide for how to learn anything really quickly, which involves contacting whoever was great at that ten years ago and asking them who is great that should not be.
Doing that for field medalists and other high achievers is plausibly extremely high value.
Engineers would be more useful if it really is crunch time.
