Questions to consider

Talking about EA

How do we go about communicating EA?
Do you think spreading EA ideas in a ‘low-fidelity’ way is an important problem for the EA movement right now?
What are some of the difficulties with communicating about EA?
Is movement growth desirable?
What do you think about ‘idea inoculation’?

EA University Groups

Are university groups impactful? In what ways can they lead to positive impact?
How does direct action as a university student (e.g. protests, part-time work) compare to planning and upskilling for later work?
What risks are there when running an EA university group?
What are the key things a university group needs to provide to help people go from new EAs into engaged members of the community who feel confident developing their plans to do good?
How do you think you should trade off (co)running a university group and working on your degree?
Do you think EA uni groups should focus on principles-first EA or on specific causes?
- Principles first: how can I do the most good with my time and resources?, running things like IDEA
- Cause-specific: running e.g. an AI safety group open to anyone
Should we collect data to evaluate our ‘impact’? If so, what and how?
Is working on ‘meta-EA’ one of the most impactful career options? :P
