All relevant links HERE

  • Area 1: Foundational research into the measurement of wellbeing
  • Area 2: Applied research to identify and evaluate the most cost-effective ways to increase wellbeing
  • Area 3: Understanding the wider global priorities context 


agenda

Discussion here. GPI focuses on prioritization research – what to prioritize and why; how to consider this. They focus less on 'how to implement improvements and interventions'.

agenda

The 'Methodology' page provides a useful discussion and overview. 'Research briefs' are also particularly helpful, and connect to a range of academic and policy research  

agenda

Psychology for Effectively Improving the Future — A Research Agenda (Lucius Caviola, Joshua Lewis, Matti Wilks, Abigail Novick Hoskin, Stefan Schubert)

Obviously longtermism focused, but many of the issues are fundamental to 'nearterm' and GCR concerns as well.

syllabus
  • Identifying impactful misinformation research that can be evaluated... Maybe identify a broader area like judgment and decision making -- then can branch out to organizational papers / misinformation work / behavioral science interventions
  • Starting point: ARTT catalog

good stuff but not too easy to navigate (or am I missing a simple table/bibliography here?)

Questions, not sources of research; and lots of 'links out to other agendas'. But these may help us do queries and filters.

Abstract: In global surveys with more than 10,000 economists, we study economists’ views about what is worth knowing. We document a coordination failure, i.e., a discrepancy between what economists consider to be worth knowing and the research they actually produce. Relative to the status quo, most economists believe that economics should become more policy-relevant, multidisciplinary, disruptive, and pursue more diverse research topics. However, economists strongly underestimate how many of their colleagues endorse these views. Because researchers follow strategic motives and pursue projects that they expect their colleagues to reward, these misperceptions can sustain the miscoordination in the production of research.

Ramsay Brown mentioned this in his talk. Seems to include both AI governance, tech AI, and AI-related work further afield

archive/newsletter/series with new research

- How can we predict the next pandemic? Are there plausible candidate pathogens outside the usual suspects (flu, pox or coronavirus)?

- What economic impacts of AI do we expect to see in the next five years? The next ten? Which industries will be impacted first?

- How was Oral Rehydration Therapy developed and rolled out? Why did it take until the 1960s when the underlying mechanism is so simple?- -

- The pessimists are probably right about lab grown meat for human consumption. Is there a niche for it anyway?

- Does the typical American cow lead a life worth living?

- We're approaching the 10 year anniversary of the replication crisis: what's changed, what hasn't?
