I agree with this, I’d like to see AI Safety scale with new projects. A few ideas I’ve been mulling:
- A ‘festival week’ bringing entrepreneur types and AI safety types together to cowork from the same place, along with a few talks and lot of mixers. - running an incubator/accelerator program at the tail end of a funding round, with fiscal sponsorship and some amount of operational support. - more targeted recruitment for specific projects to advance important parts of a research agenda.
It’s often unclear to me whether new projects should actually be new organizations; making it easier to spin up new projects, that can then either join existing orgs or grow into orgs themselves, seems like a promising direction.
