Could I contribute by offering coaching to alignment researchers? If so, how would I go about this?

Notes:

• Shay is already doing this for health coaching. Talk to AI Safety Support
• Offer free (or paid if you’re financially constrained) coaching
• If you get good reviews that you actually help people, apply for funding

Yes you can! You can check out AI Safety Support's resources for examples on the format this could take.

If you get good reviews and actually help these researchers, you might eventually get funded by external organisations.
