Hi everybody! I’m Victoria, I’m currently based in Edinburgh and I heard about EA through LessWrong. I’ve been involved with the local EA group for almost a year now, and with rationalism for a few years longer than that. I’m only now getting around to being active on the forum here.
I was a medical student, but I’m taking a year out and seriously considering moving into either direct existential risk research/policy or something like operations/‘interpreting’ research. When I’ve had opportunities to do things like that I’ve really enjoyed it. I’ve also previously freelanced with Nonlinear and CEA for research and writing gigs.
Long-term I could see myself getting into AI, possibly something like helping build infrastructure for AI researchers to better communicate, or direct AI work (with my neuroscience degree).
