As more and more students get interested in AI safety, and AI-safety-specific research positions fail to open up proportionally, I expect that many of them (like me) will end up as graduate students in mainstream ethical-AI research groups. Resources like these are helping me to get my bearings.
(BTW there’s been a big spurt of alignment jobs lately, including serious spots in academia. e.g. here, here, here. probably not quite up to demand, but it’s better than you’d think.)
These are excellent answers, thanks so much!

Good luck!
