I’d like to see more outreach to intellectual experts outside of the typical EA community. I think there are lots of people with knowledge and expertise that could be relevant to EA causes, but who barely know that it exists, or have disagreements with fundamental aspects of the movement. Finding ways to engage with these people could be very valuable to get fresh perspectives and it could help grow the community.
I don’t know how exactly to do this, but maybe something like soliciting guest posts from professors or industry experts, or AMA style things or dialogues.
I like this idea. Might be especially good in the context of symposia (like this one). Last year I found it fairly tricky to get enough questions on AMAs to make them worthwhile.
Any particular people/ viewpoints you’d like to see on the Forum?
