A Plea to the Laid-off, from an ex-Googler

This EA Forum post from May 2026 scores 77/100 with perfect recency and thesis fit (1.0 each), demonstrating a credentialed ex-Google founder (credential score 1.0) building public infrastructure to channel laid-off tech talent into AI safety roles. The author offers free 1:1 coaching funded by Coefficient Giving, has created a structured onboarding pipeline (BlueDot courses, job boards, case studies), and explicitly targets the talent-density gap between AI acceleration and the ~1,000-person safety field. Raise stage scores 0.5 because this is community-building work rather than a formal organization seeking capital, though the operational model and funder relationship suggest nascent infrastructure that could scale with philanthropic backing.

  Send a cold LinkedIn message to Jen Baik at EA San Francisco referencing her Coefficient Giving community organizer role and ask whether she has considered spinning her talent-pipeline work into a standalone nonprofit that could absorb multi-year operating grants to professionalize intake, coaching, and placement tracking.
