Nice, we now have some good project ideas, next we need people to execute them.
I wouldn’t expect that to happen automatically in many cases. Therefore, I am particularly excited about projects that help as accelerators for getting other projects started, like actively finding the right people (and convincing them to start/work on a specific project) or making promising people more capable.
In particular, I’d be excited about a great headhunting organization to get the right people (EAs and non-EAs) to work on the right projects. (Like you considered in the project idea “EA ops”, though I think it would also help a lot for e.g. finding great AI safety researchers.)
The way you phrased the projects “Talent search” and “innovative educational experiments” generally sound too narrow to me. I don’t only want to find and help talented youths, but also e.g. get great professors to work on AI safety, and support all sorts of people through e.g. leadership and productivity training.
