I meant that if EtG is important to you, then why not just go all in on EtG? You might say that AI-related career advice assigns higher priority to research, but I think that assumes you only pick one of these and not split your attention. I think 80k would encourage focusing on EtG if it is important to you for some reason:
Overall, earning to give typically ends up seeming most attractive in the following cases: … There’s a particular job you really want to do for other reasons that’s higher-earning than average, or that can be adapted into. This might look like Jeff working as a software engineer, or someone who really always wanted to be a doctor, or a teacher who does private tutoring and donates the extra. …
I think I’d only encourage seriously doing two of these in parallel if both are important to you for some reason other than impact.
How do you expect to spread your effort across the two? What major sacrifices are you making (e.g., not attend a CS degree, work +N hours a week compared to average) that enable this, and what is your estimate on how it impacts your productivity in the long run?
Not attending CS degree isn’t a sacrifice. Self-learning is very sufficient, the only thing I need from school is research mentorship.
It’s a bit complicated to explain, but doing these two in parallel does NOT reduce productivity at all. If you’re interested at why I could explain in the future
