Dear Professor Tegmark, I'm a young neuroscientist developing one of the local Effective Altruism chapters. How can I transfer from my field to the AI safety and x-risk research? I would love to directly contribute my intellectual work to the focus areas which seem to be humanity's ultimate challenges, but it's extremely difficult for an "outsider" to reach the decisive circles and secure a high-impact position in the existential risk network.
As a side note, I have recently read "Our Mathematical Universe" and your deep considerations on the nature of reality significantly helped me in getting through difficult times by appreciating the uniqueness of life. Thank you!
