tldr: A mathematics major graduating in May. Looking for next steps, in AI or elsewhere, but unsure of what exactly I want. Happy in general quantitative, policy, or operations roles.
Skills: Strong math background (+familiar with stats). Research skills (in math, AI Safety) including some coding (esp. python) and clear writing (won an outstanding poster at a math conference). Project management at Amazons operations internship; ran painting business for two summers, and finances for independent debate club at my school.
Location/remote: Currently in Philadelphia. Would move for a good opportunity, but prefer East Coast US/Remote
Availability & type of work: I can start in mid to late June (or later). Prefer full time or volunteering
Resume: Resume link. LinkedIn here.
Email/contact: DM me, or message me via LinkedIn.
Other notes: I have a great deal of uncertainty of what my longer term plan. If you have any suggestions, particularly ones which help answer whether I should return to graduate school at some point.
Thanks for the piece. I think there’s an unexamined assumption here about the robustness of non-earth settlement. It may be that one can maintain a settlement on another world for a long time, but unless we get insanely lucky, it seems unlikely to me that you live on another planet without sustaining technology at or above our current capabilities. It may also be that in the medium-term these settlements are dependent on Earth for manufacturing resources etc. which reduces their independence.
This isn’t fatal to your thesis (especially in the long-long term), but I think having a high minimum technology threshold does undercut your thesis to some extent.
