Hi! Co-author of the linked “exploration” here. I have some reservations about the exact request (left as a separate comment) but I’m very excited about this idea in general. I’ve been advocating for direct spending on AI research as a place with a huge ROI for alignment research for a while and it’s very exciting to see this happening.
I don’t have the time (or aptitude) to produce a really high quality dataset, but I (and EleutherAI in general) would be happy to help with training the models if that’s desired. We’d be happy to consult on model design or training set-up, or to simply train the models for you all. No compensation necessary, just excited to contribute to worthwhile alignment research.

IMO Eleuther should probably spend more time doing things like this and less on scaling LMs
Can confirm: Eleuther is awesome, I don’t know how to do any of this, but keep offering big prizes and I (and others) will follow them.
