Well not entrepreneurship as such, but more like discussions about entrepreneurship. There’s all sorts of things in the process that could benefit from rationality, and it’d be nice to see them expanded on: How to pick an idea, How to build a team, Whether starting a business is a good use of time to begin with, etc.
Discussions on the relationship between entrepreneurship and rationality would forward SIAI and FHI’s common goal of increasing the amount of money spent on existential risks. There is an Existential Risk Reduction Career Network, but no entrepreneurship discussion group devoted to reducing existential risks that I know of. Entrepreneurship offers an income-earning alternative for people facing situations where standard careers are sub-optimal.
I would like to know your reasoning could you elaborate? Why would you like to see more Entrepreneurship on LessWrong?
