Regarding your specific situation, my prior is that there may be a creative 3rd option that will be win-win.
As a first suggestion, how about sharing this challenge with the AI Safety company?
Maybe they’ll let you work remotely, or pay for a limousine to take you and/or your girlfriend back and forth every day? Or maybe there’s an AI Safety place that will fit you that is close to home? Or maybe something in the new area would attract your girlfriend (and family?) to move?
These are all extreme long shots, probably all are wrong, I’m just trying to explain what I’m pointing at. These kinds of solutions often come from having at least one person with all the information, so I’d start with opening this to conversation
Yeah, I’ll try to be creative. It is not a company though, it’s academy. But that gives you flexibility too, so it’s good. Even to do partially remote work.
Though I am not sure I can ask her to move from European to America. She values stability quite a lot, and she wants to get a permanent position as a civil servant in Spain, where we are from.
