Is that true for Redwood? They’ve got a timed technical screen before application, and their interview involves live coding with Python and ML libraries.
I talked to Buck from Redwood about 1 month ago and that’s what he told me, and I think we went over this as “a really important point” more than once so I’d know if I misunderstood him (but still please tell me if I’m wrong).
I assume if you tell them that you have zero ML experience, they’ll give you an interview without ML libraries, or perhaps something very simple with ML libraries that you could learn on the fly (just like you could learn web scraping or so). This part is just me speculating though. Anyway this is something you could ask them before your first technical interview for sure: “Hey, I have zero ML experience, do you still want to interview me?”
Can a software developer help with AI Safety even if they have zero knowledge of ML and zero understanding of AI Safety theory?
Yes, both Anthropic and Redwood want to hire such developers
