Emergent Misalignment coauthor Daniel Tan used to get burnout lasting weeks or months; not since our eight calls 9 months ago. He’s also gained ~5h/day after losing interest in doomscrolling.
Founding engineer’s burnout lifted: he went from planning to leave to shipping again within weeks. He also shared feedback he’d been withholding for half a year; the founders acted on it immediately.
Frontier lab researcher went from avoiding conflict with respected colleagues to challenging them. 18mo later he still does this, and even runs his own team.

I don’t have a rate. Payment is forbidden until your genuine satisfaction with lasting results (usually expensed to your company). The one thing upfront is a bond, returned once you’ve held up your end. I am a bounty hunter.

Past results have taken about ten conversations plus home practice over eight weeks. People who doomscroll tend to gain more time than they invest.

I focus on matters such as burnout, conflict, and agency for people making AI go well. If something feels off but you don’t know what, ask me for diagnosis.
