This came, as I am actively looking into joining a frontier ai company safety team. although the incentives for these AI companies seem really encouraging, I have noticed I have an indifferent feeling when it comes to financial gains. Like, what excites me most, and makes me want to actually work in any AI safety, is the contribution, the constant rush of knowing that you may be closer to understand how this system works. I noticed I did not care about who is offer what, when I found myself pitching to someone to do volunteering work for them, all I want is just getting the resources and be in that environment.
