It would be great if there were more options. I would absolutely leave my current job, and bring my ML experience with me, to a role in AI safety. I would be okay to take a pay cut to do it. This doesn’t seem like an option to me though, after a brief bit of searching on and off over the last year.

Great essay. Though I would note that “price gouging” usually refers to the scenario described: when the change in price is possible only by virtue of seller market power. I think the term is misused enough that it makes sense to present the example as is, but I would call it a pretty basic error in terminology for the scenario, absent seller market power, being referred to as price gouging.
