This is a for-profit company, and you’re seeking investment as well as funding to reduce x-risk. Given that, how do you expect to monetise this in the future? (Note: I think this is well worth funding for altruistic reduce-x-risk reasons)
Relatedly, have you considered organizing the company as a Public Benefit Corporation, so that the mission and impact is legally protected alongside shareholder interests?
This isn’t set in stone, but likely we’ll monetise by selling access to the interpretability engine, via an API. I imagine we’ll offer free or subsidised access to select researchers/orgs. Another route would be to open source all of it, and monetise by offering a paid, hosted version with integration support etc.
