I meant something like “good enough to look like a MIRI researcher, but unlikely to turn out to be more productive than the average MIRI researcher”.

Given optimistic assumptions about how well MIRI distinguishes good from bad job applicants, then I’d expect that MIRI wouldn’t hire RAISE graduates.
