What do you do to keep up with AI Safety / ML / theoretical CS research, to the extent that you do? And how much time do you spend on this? For example, do you browse arXiv, Twitter, …?
Mostly word of mouth (i.e. I know the authors, or someone sends a link to a paper either to me directly or to a slack channel I’m on or...). I sometimes browse conference proceedings or arxiv but rarely find that much valuable. Sometimes I’m curious if anyone has made progress on issue X so search for it, or more often I’m curious about what some people have been up to so check if I’ve missed a paper.
I’ve been keeping up with things less well since leaving OpenAI.
