Glad to hear about this!
I have a recommendation for the structure of it. I’d recommend that anonymous reviewers review submissions and share their reviews with the authors (perhaps privately) before a rebuttal phase (also perhaps private). And then reviewers can revise their reviews, and then chairs can make judgments about which submissions to publish.
I’d love to chat with you about directions here, if you’re interested. I don’t know anyone with a bigger value of p(survival | West Wing levels of competence in major governments) - p(survival | leave it to OpenAI and DeepMind leadership). I’ve published technical AI existential safety research at top ML conferences/journals, and I’ve gotten two MPs in the UK onside this week.
