At Montreal, all I know is that the PhD student, David Krueger, is currently in discussions about what work could be done. At Oxford, I have in mind the work of folks at FHI like Owain Evans and Stuart Armstrong.
If you are interested in applying to Oxford, but not FHI, then Michael Osbourne is very sympathetic to AI safety, but doesn’t currently work on it. He might be worth chatting to. Also, Shimon Whiteson does lots of relevant seeming work in the area of deep RL, but I don’t know if he is at all sympathetic.
Any details on safety work in Montreal and Oxford (other than FHI I assume)? I might use that for an application there.
