Much of the stuff that catches your interest on the 80,000 hours website’s problem profiles would be something I’d like to watch you do a podcast on, or costly if I end up getting it from people whose work I’m less familiar with. Also, neurology, cogpsych/evopsych/epistasis (e.g. like this 80k podcast with Randy Neese, this 80k podcast with Athena Aktipis), and especially more quantitative modelling approaches to culture change/trends (e.g. 80k podcast with Cass Sunstein, 80k podcast with Tom Moynihan, 80k podcasts with David Duvenaud and Karnofsky). A lot of the intermediate-yet-upstream -type stuff with the AI situation, even deepfakes etc is hard to hear takes from from people who haven’t really established that they do serious thinking.
