Nitpick: “England” here probably wants to be something like “the south-east of England”. There’s not a lot you could do from Newcastle that you couldn’t do from Stockholm; you need to be within travel distance of Oxford, Cambridge, or London.
Actually, is anyone other than DeepMind in London? (the section I brought this up was on volunteering, which I assume is less relevant for DeepMind than FHI)
There will be a technical AI safety-relevant postdoc position opening up with this CFI spke shortly, looking at trust/transparency/interpretability in AI systems.
Murray will be remaining involved with CFI, albeit at reduced hours. The current intention is that there will still be a postdoc in trust/transparency/interpretability based out of Imperial, although we are looking into the possibility of having a colleague of Murray’s supervising or co-supervising.

Thanks, fixed.
