Zico Kolter Joins OpenAI’s Board of Directors. OpenAI says “Zico’s work predominantly focuses on AI safety, alignment, and the robustness of machine learning classifiers.”
Misc facts:
He’s an ML professor
He cofounded Gray Swan (with Dan Hendrycks, among others)
He coauthored Universal and Transferable Adversarial Attacks on Aligned Language Models
I hear he has good takes on adversarial robustness
I failed to find statements on alignment or extreme risks, or work focused on that (in particular, he did not sign the CAIS letter)
I’m confused. On their about page, Dan is an advisor, not a founder.
Dan was a cofounder.
It might have something to do with Dan choosing to divest: https://x.com/DanHendrycks/status/1816523907777888563.
