Well you might be pleased to know that there are large safety teams working at all frontier model companies worried about the same thing! You could even apply if you have related skills.

Are these safety teams subject to the oversight of more estabilished international agreements and safeguards?

Hi! I work directly on these teams as a model builder and have talked to my colleagues are the other labs well.
All our orgs have openings and if you also could consider working for organizations such as the UK AISI team and other independent organizations that are assessing these models. It's a critical field and there is a need for motivated folks.

#7For all the hate that Google (rightly) gets for some of their work in other domains, I appreciate that they continue to put major resources behind using AI to try and save lives in medicine and autonomous driving.
Easy to take for granted, but their peer companies are not doing this type of long term investment.

#8This is so awesome. Hoping those in the biology field can comment on the significance.

Seems like no matter how positive the headline about the technology is, there is invariably someone in the comments pointing out a worst case hypothetical. Is there a name for this phenomenon?

Rational discourse? Not working for a marketing team? Realism?
