Are you interested in AI X-risk reduction and strategies? Do you have experience in comms or policy? Let’s chat!
aigsi.org develops educational materials and ads that most efficiently communicate core AI safety ideas to specific demographics, with a focus on producing a correct understanding of why smarter-than-human AI poses a risk of extinction. We plan to increase and leverage understanding of AI and existential risk from AI to impact the chance of institutions addressing x-risk.
Early results include ads that achieve a cost of $0.10 per click (to a website that explains the technical details of why AI experts are worried about extinction risk from AI) and $0.05 per engagement on ads that share simple ideas at the core of the problem.
Personally, I’m good at explaining existential risk from AI to people, including to policymakers. I have experience of changing minds of 3⁄4 people I talked to at an e/acc event.
Previously, I got 250k people to read HPMOR and sent 1.3k copies to winners of math and computer science competitions (including dozens of IMO and IOI gold medalists); have taken the GWWC pledge; created a small startup that donated >100k$ to effective nonprofits.
I have a background in ML and strong intuitions about the AI alignment problem. I grew up running political campaigns and have a bit of a security mindset.
