I often talk to developers who prefer not destroying the world by accident (specifically by accelerating AGI risk), but neither them nor me can decide if specific companies qualify for this.
Could someone knowledgable help? A few short replies could probably change someone's career decisions
Can you help with future questions?

OK, I'll answer, because I was asked directly.
Next Silicon's site gives no details on their plans and they say right away on the linked page "in stealth mode", so all I know about them is that they make chips for super computers that are not optimized for neural networks.
I'd guess that it is less risky for 40 people to go to work for Next Silicon than for one person to go into AI capability research. But it is safer still if nobody went to work for either group.
There are computing jobs that lower x-risk. One such job is to make it easier for people to publish or access information (like the people who run this site do).
