Agreed. Simply focusing on physics post-docs feels too narrow to me.
Then again, just as John has a particular idea of what good alignment research looks like, I have my own idea: I would lean towards recruiting folk with both a technical and a philosophical background. It’s possible that my own idea is just as narrow.

The post did explicitly say “Obviously that doesn’t mean we exclusively want physics postdocs”.
Thanks for clarifying. Still feels narrow as a primary focus.
