It's been a while since we explicitly discussed Effective Altruism. The movement has changed a lot in the past couple years:
• There's a much more deliberate focus on entrepreneurship, • Givewell is spinning off Givewell Labs to explore more complex but high payoff opportunities
• MIRI has shifted focus, emphasizing math workshops and outreach to current-generation Narrow AI Safety experts in addition to Artificial General Intelligence researchers
Early saturday evening, April 26th, we'll have a series of short talks about the state of the movement and opportunities you can pursue, including:
1) How to think strategically about doing good.
2) How to switch careers effectively
3) Recent updates by organizations in the Effective Altruism movement.
