Not every personality type is well-equipped to work in AI alignment, so I strongly feel the pitch should be about finding the field that best suits you and where you specifically can find your greatest impact, regardless of whether that ends up being in a longtermist career or global health/poverty or earning to give. As to what charity to give to, whether it would be better to donate to a GiveWell charity or better to donate to AI alignment research, I personally am not sure, I lean more toward the GiveWell charities but I’m fairly new to the EA community and still forming my opinions....
I think this is a great opening pitch!
