That seems like the reverse, right? Given candidates, find me the best ones? So you'd want different prompts, though potentially some of the same logic carries over. In any case with the primitive nature of my prompts, and the complexity of the approach, I would probably advise someone to start from scratch. I'm generally a fan of open source though, and I could imagine releasing it.

Quick ask: I’m working on an AI tool that takes your resume/LinkedIn and shows you the most relevant opportunities from the 80k Job Board, then lets you discuss them with an AI.

I like to talk to 5-10 people for quick user interviews (30 mins). You might be interested if you:

• Are job hunting or career planning
• Want to help me build a tool for others trying to have an impact with their career

Drop your details here if interested.

I agree they're generally useful. I claim^[1] they're especially useful in EA. But that's not enough to make this interesting.

There are many generally useful correlated traits where the correlation with general mental ability is stronger than the correlation between those traits. So being a good writer is good, and also being good at solving math problems is good. And they're positively correlated. But most things are, just through general intelligence.

What becomes interesting is identifying a cluster of traits that are more correlated with each other than with intelligence, and also predictive of success. These are rare, and usually wrong.^[2] If such a cluster can be identified, than knowing about it can help you identify talent that will do well.

If such a cluster is also trainable, well then, you've got a real prize.

Much of the credit belongs to LessWrong!

Fair, I was probably too loose there. I believe specifically that posts which were copied from google docs^[1] failed to wrap at the screen width. But I wasn't a much of a mobile reader at the time.

Also thank you! I didn't realize you were the one who added mobile support.

   IIRC, maybe it was some other cause that affected a subset of posts

I like the branching tree metaphor, and I like the attempt to framework these intro conversations — good post.

Thanks, Lizka. I think this is one of the best retirement presents I could have gotten.

A Forum post can be short. What a great ratio of punch per word.

Nice, I like this. Have you considered crossposting the full content? Usually those get a lot more people reading them, and more visibility, though do note the CC-BY restriction.

Good ideas, thank you!
