Recently, there has been a lot of talk about how the talent pipeline in EA is inefficiently managed. One part of this is central EA organizations have focused on developing the talent pipeline for a narrow selection of metacharities and NPOs focused on AI alignment/βx-risk reduction. Developing infrastructure for the ecosystems of other cause areas in EA, to optimize their talent pipelines, could make the overall problem of talent allocation in EA less of a problem.
Cause areas within EA could develop their own materials and handbooks to circulate among supporters, and organize events or conferences that allow for better, more specialized networking than more cause-neutral events like EAG can offer.
