I think for that money you’re going to need to prove that you’re worth it—can you link to any of your work? Also, as per my note at the top of the OP, I think that there basically isn’t time to spin up an alignment career now, so unless you are a genius or have some novel insights into the problem already, then I’m not very hopeful that your work could make a difference at this late stage. I’m more excited about people pivoting to work on getting a global AGI moratorium in place asap. Once we have that, then we can focus on a “Manhattan Project” for Alignment.
