That’s a great talk, thank you for it. This is why I’ve started to mind that people get encouraged to figure out what “their cause area” is.
Apart from the fact that they’re likely to change their mind within a few years anyway, it’s more valuable for the world for them to focus on what they’re good at even if it’s not in their preferred cause area. Cooperation between cause areas is important.
(Also, “figuring out what the best cause areas are” might be something that should also be done by people whose comparative advantage it is).
