What actions have you been taking to prepare for the possibility that the AI industry will experience a market crash, something along the lines of the dotcom bust of the early 2000s? Also, what actions would you take if a crash like that occurred? For example:
If your career is strongly AI-focused, what backup plan do you have in place?
If you’re working on AI alignment research, how would your research agenda change? Would you switch to a different cause area altogether?
Likewise, if you’re working on AI policy, how would your approach to it change?
Let’s set aside speculation about whether a crash will happen or not; I’d like to hear what concrete actions people are taking.
