Nate Soares once described autodidacting to prepare for a job at MIRI. For each position at MIRI (agent foundations, machine learning alignment, software engineer, type theorist, machine learning living library), what should one study if one wanted to do something like that today? (i.e. for agent foundations, is Scott Garrabrant’s suggestion of “Learn enough math to understand all fixed point theorems” essentially correct? Is there anything else one needs to know?)


If an intelligent person was willing to prepare for any position at MIRI, but was currently unqualified for any, which would you want them to go for?
