To give just one example, I think Effective Altruists focus far too little on meta-science. Much of what they want to do depends on meta-science, and in science it's quite difficult to fund that sort of work, so it seems odd to me that it's not considered a top priority on 80,000 Hours.
I'm sure there are other areas, but I haven't put an effort into listing them. Global priorities work is pretty hard.
Also, apparently 80,000 Hours now considers AI safety only "somewhat neglected", so perhaps the EAs behind 80,000 Hours agree with me more than I thought. https://80000hours.org/problem-profiles/positively-shaping-artificial-intelligence/ https://80000hours.org/problem-profiles/positively-shaping-a...
