First of all, I want to thank you for this extremely extensive and well-thought out message, this is extremely helpful, thank you very much! As for the university, with the degree that I will have the ETH Zurich makes most sense, which is the furthest one can go in the country unfortunately.
Ahh yes the Andrew Ng course is great, I’m still on it but that’s a great idea, and I’ll check out the OpenAI course as well!
I also want to thank you a lot for your thoughts on degree choice (also in the context of AI safety), that was my first priority to figure out—and your thoughts on that were very helpful.
The note on global priorities research was also really interesting! That was actually a really good point, for some reason I had written GPR off in my mind, but it is actually a great idea. Perhaps the proximity to Geneva and EU citizenship may be useful in that regard
I’ve only just started digging into this post because it is so rich, so I will definitely be checking out more!
