I spoke with a lot of other AI governance folks before launching, in part due to worries about the unilateralists curse. I think that there is a chance this project ends up being damaging, either by being discordant with other actors in the space, committing political blunders, increasing the polarization of AI, etc. We’re trying our best to mitigate these risks (and others) and are corresponding with some experienced DC folks who are giving us advice, as well as being generally risk-averse in how we act. That being said, some senior folks I’ve talked to are bearish on the project for reasons including the above.
DM me if you’d be interested in more details, I can share more offline.
Thanks!
