10th-11th * 20 total applications * 4 (20%) Stop/Pause AI * 8 (40%) Mech-Interp and Agent Foundations
12th-13th * 18 total applications * 2 (11%) Stop/Pause AI * 7 (39%) Mech-Interp and Agent Foundations
15th-16th * 45 total application * 4 (9%) Stop/Pause AI * 20 (44%) Mech-Interp and Agent Foundations
Stop/Puase AI stays at 2-4 per week, while the others go from 7-8 to 20
One may point out that 2 to 4 is a doubling suggesting noisy data, and also going from 7-8 is also just a doubling and might not mean much. This could be the case. But we should expect higher notice for lower numbers. I.e. a doubling of 2 is less surprising than a (more than) doubling of 7-8.
