AI Safety Connect (AISC)

I'm working on AI Safety Connect, a new organization convening diplomatic and AI Safety stakeholders at the highest level - think UN, India Impact Summit etc. We are also seeding a few other projects, like engaging the UAE in AI Safety and helping prevent critical coordination failures among frontier labs.

2022—2023 年冬季班共有 58 位学员和 17 位导师,导师来自 Anthropic、MIRI、ARC、Redwood Research 等领先机构。本届首次设立 Scholar Support 团队,为学员提供研究指导,并协助他们解决研究过程中的障碍。项目先在线开展 6 周,随后在伯克利线下进行 2 个月。学员还组织了多种活动,包括机制可解释性和线性代数学习小组、每周闪电演讲,以及研究工具和技术写作工作坊。本届校友中,Marius Hobbhahn 创立了 Apollo Research 并发表了机制可解释性研究;Asa 与他人合著了关于测量情境意识以及大型语言模型“反转诅咒”的论文;Jesse Hoogland 创立了 Timaeus,并提出了发展式可解释性研究方向。

Working in a team environment, particularly one as stimulating as MATS, was a transformative experience. It not only refined my research skills but also instilled a newfound entrepreneurial spirit in me. The program encouraged me to think beyond the conventional, to innovate, and to take risks. Additionally, the array of skills I acquired during my time at MATS was vast. I delved deep into research engineering, honed my science communication abilities, and even tapped into the art of fundraising. These skills, I believe, are indispensable and have equipped me to navigate the ever-evolving world of research with confidence. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly endorse the MATS program. To anyone considering embarking on this journey, you are not only signing up for an unparalleled research experience but also a lifetime of growth, learning, and camaraderie.
